Network Topology of Physarum Polycephalum — •Siddharth Deshpande, Christina Oettmeier, and Hans-Günther Döbereiner — Institut für Biophysik, Universität Bremen

The vein network of the unicellular slime mold Physarum Polycephalum shows a characteristic structure. We study vein creation and network formation. Mainly, we are interested in the distribution of nodes and links as a function of time and growth conditions. Network topology is observed from nanometer to millimeter length scales using Zeiss objectives with various magnifications. Further, we have developed a special macro-observation setup via a Canon digital camera.
