Lévy-distributed fluctuations in the living cell cortex
The actomyosin cortex is an active material that provides animal cells with a strong but flexible exterior whose mechanics, including non-Gaussian fluctuations and occasional large displacements or cytoquakes, have defied explanation. We study the active fluctuations of the cortex using nanoscale tr...
