15. See EPAPS Document No. E-PRLTAO-103-182952 for a video of the isotropic liquid crystal flowing around a microwire. Particles are dispersed in the liquid in order to facilitate the observation of the flow. The images, 120 μm wide, are captured at a frequency of 1 frame/s. The flow velocity is ca. 5 μm/s.
