Entrainment and scattering in microswimmer-colloid interactions
We use boundary element simulations to study the interaction of model microswimmers with a neutrally buoyant spherical particle. The ratio of the size of the particle to that of the swimmer is varied from R\supP / R\supS \ll 1, corresponding to swimmer--tracer scattering, to R\supP / R\supS \gg 1, a...
