Observation of the critical regime near Anderson localization of light

M Störzer, P Gross, CM Aegerter, G Maret - Physical review letters, 2006 - APS
The transition from diffusive transport to localization of waves should occur for any type of
classical or quantum wave in any media as long as the wavelength becomes comparable to …

Scattered light fluorescence microscopy: imaging through turbid layers

IM Vellekoop, CM Aegerter - Optics letters, 2010 - opg.optica.org
A major limitation of any type of microscope is the penetration depth in turbid tissue. Here,
we demonstrate a fundamentally novel kind of fluorescence microscope that images through …

Coherent backscattering and Anderson localization of light

CM Aegerter, G Maret - Progress in Optics, 2009 - Elsevier
… The samples differ in tube length, ranging from 61 cm (sample A) to 183 cm (sample C).
Samples B and D are both 90 cm long but in sample D the absorption was artificially enhanced …

[HTML][HTML] Model for the regulation of size in the wing imaginal disc of Drosophila

T Aegerter-Wilmsen, CM Aegerter, E Hafen… - Mechanisms of …, 2007 - Elsevier
For animal development it is necessary that organs stop growing after they reach a certain
size. However, it is still largely unknown how this termination of growth is regulated. The wing …

Direct determination of the transition to localization of light in three dimensions

T Sperling, W Buehrer, CM Aegerter, G Maret - Nature Photonics, 2013 - nature.com
Diffusive wave transport in three-dimensional media should show a phase transition, with
increasing disorder, to a state without transport. This transition was first discussed by Anderson …

Observation of a square flux-line lattice in the unconventional superconductor Sr2RuO4

…, AW Tyler, SL Lee, C Ager, DMK Paul, CM Aegerter… - Nature, 1998 - nature.com
The phenomenon of superconductivity continues to be of considerable scientific and
practical interest. Underlying this phenomenon is the formation of electron pairs, which in …

Integrating force-sensing and signaling pathways in a model for the regulation of wing imaginal disc size

…, PB de Reuille, RS Smith, CM Aegerter… - …, 2012 - journals.biologists.com
The regulation of organ size constitutes a major unsolved question in developmental biology.
The wing imaginal disc of Drosophila serves as a widely used model system to study this …

Exploring the effects of mechanical feedback on epithelial topology

…, AC Smith, AJ Christen, CM Aegerter… - …, 2010 - journals.biologists.com
Apical cell surfaces in metazoan epithelia, such as the wing disc of Drosophila, resemble
polygons with different numbers of neighboring cells. The distribution of these polygon …

Can 3D light localization be reached in 'white paint'?

…, M Ackermann, GJ Aubry, CM Aegerter… - New Journal of …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
When waves scatter multiple times in 3D random media, a disorder driven phase transition
from diffusion to localization may occur (Anderson 1958 Phys. Rev. 109 1492–505; …

Experimental investigation of the freely cooling granular gas

CC Maaß, N Isert, G Maret, CM Aegerter - Physical review letters, 2008 - APS
We investigate the dynamics of the freely cooling granular gas. For this purpose we
diamagnetically levitate the grains providing a terrestrial milligravity environment. At early times we …
