Abstract

The optical train of microparticles waveguide the light and stabilized itself due to strong optical and hydrodynamic forces. Particles develop one after another from the reservoir in direction of light propagation similarly to a chain developing from a spool or a train. We experimentally study the effect and numerically evaluate the forces acting on micorparticles in the train. When number of particles in reservoir is small we observe rapid shooting of microparticles like from the optically powered cannon.
