A simple catch: Fluctuations enable hydrodynamic trap** of microrollers by obstacles

EB van der Wee, BC Blackwell, F Balboa Usabiaga… - Science …, 2023 - science.org
It is known that obstacles can hydrodynamically trap bacteria and synthetic microswimmers
in orbits, where the trap** time heavily depends on the swimmer flow field and noise is …
