This result is in net contrast with the isotropic aggregation of nanoparticles on fluid interfaces or the expected clustering of isotropic insertions in biological membranes. We present a phase diagram indicating where linear aggregation is expected and compute explicitly the free-energy barriers associated with linear and isotropic aggregation. Finally, we provide simple scaling arguments to explain this phenomenology.","lang":"eng"}],"article_number":"118101","publication_status":"published","publication":"Physical Review Letters","author":[{"last_name":"Šarić","id":"bf63d406-f056-11eb-b41d-f263a6566d8b","full_name":"Šarić, Anđela","first_name":"Anđela","orcid":"0000-0002-7854-2139"},{"first_name":"Angelo","full_name":"Cacciuto, Angelo","last_name":"Cacciuto"}],"doi":"10.1103/physrevlett.108.118101","_id":"10388","date_created":"2021-11-29T14:30:05Z","month":"03","citation":{"ista":"Šarić A, Cacciuto A. 2012.
