The Countoscope: measuring self and collective diffusion with fancy counting Modern microscopy techniques can image complex, microscopic systems with an unprecedented resolution – but methods to analyze these images are much less robust. Available techniques rely on reconstructing and analyzing particle trajectories which can be difficult or impossible in dense, heterogeneous systems, or when particle […]
