Controlled propulsion in viscous fluids of magnetically actuated colloidal doublets.
We study the propulsion of a micron-size paramagnetic colloidal doublet dispersed in water and driven above a surface by an external precessing magnetic field. The applied field forces the doublet to precess around an axis parallel to the plane of motion and the rotation of the colloidal assembly is...
