Rather than wandering randomly, these optically-activated colloidal swimmers circulate back and forth through the beam of light, tracing out sinuous rosette patterns. We propose a model for this mode of light-activated transport that accounts for the observed behavior through a combination of self-thermophoresis and optically-induced torque. In the deterministic limit, this model yields trajectories that resemble rosette curves known as hypotrochoids.","lang":"eng"}],"publisher":"Royal Society of Chemistry ","type":"journal_article","user_id":"D865714E-FA4E-11E9-B85B-F5C5E5697425","day":"14","main_file_link":[{"url":"https://arxiv.org/abs/1609.01497","open_access":"1"}]}
