Green algae scatter off sharp viscosity gradients

We study the behaviour of the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (CR) in the presence of neighbouring regions of different viscosity. We show that the velocity and angular diffusion of the algae decreases when the viscosity of the surrounding medium is increased. We report on a phenomenon occurrin...
