Polymer translocation through a nanopore assisted by an environment of active rods
We use a combination of computer simulations and isoflux tension propagation (IFTP) theory to investigate the translocation dynamics of a flexible linear polymer through a nanopore into an environment composed of repulsive active rods in two dimensions. We demonstrate that the rod activity induces a...
