Is it more efficient to push a molecular motor with a constant force, or at a constant velocity? See our collaborative paper in @physrevlett.bsky.social

and the Focus article

to learn the winner and the why (it’s all about the fluctuations).
Efficiently Driving ${\mathrm{F}}_{1}$ Molecular Motor in Experiment by Suppressing Nonequilibrium Variation
Turning a biologically important molecular motor at a constant rate saves energy, according to experiments.
