Image and signal correlation of electric-field induced charged fibrous viruses (fd)

The image and signal correlations are presented for understanding both collective and microscopic dynamics of filamentous bacteirophage, fd-virus suspensions. For a given low ionic strength, the electrostatic Debye screening length is few times larger than the diameter of the core of fd-virus particles; the applied electric field apparently deforms the double-layer and determines the interaction (or the motion).
