Bacterial scattering in microfluidic crystal flows reveals giant active Taylor-Aris dispersion

The natural habitats of planktonic and swimming microorganisms, from algae in the oceans to bacteria living in soil or intestines, are characterized by highly heterogeneous fluid flows. The complex interplay of flow-field topology, self-propulsion, and porous microstructure is essential to a wide ra...
