abstract = {We propose a hydrodynamic model for a spheroidal
microswimmer with two tangential surface velocity modes.
This model is analytically solvable and reduces to
Lighthill's and Blake's spherical squirmer model in the
limit of equal major and minor semi-axes. Furthermore, we
present an implementation of such a spheroidal squirmer by
means of particle-based mesoscale hydrodynamics simulations
using the multiparticle collision dynamics approach. We
investigate its properties as well as the scattering of two
spheroidal squirmers in a slit geometry. Thereby we find a
stable fixed point, where two pullers swim cooperatively
forming a wedge-like conformation with a small constant
angle.},
