A Minimal Mechanosensing Model Predicts Keratocyte Evolution on Flexible Substrates

Kavli Affiliate: G. Ravichandran |Summary:A mathematical model is proposed for shape evolution and locomotion of fish epidermal keratocytes on elastic substrates. The model is based on mechanosensing concepts: cells apply contractile forces onto the elastic substrate, while cell shape evolution depends locally on the substrate stress generated by themselves or external mechanical stimuli acting on […]

Gravitationally Lensed Quasars in Gaia: II. Discovery of 24 Lensed Quasars

Kavli Affiliate: R. G. McMahon | Summary:We report the discovery, spectroscopic confirmation and preliminary characterisation of 24 gravitationally lensed quasars identified using Gaia observations. Candidates were selected in the Pan-STARRS footprint with quasar-like WISE colours or as photometric quasars from SDSS, requiring either multiple detections in Gaia or a single Gaia detection near a morphological […]
