      abstract     = {The dynamics and motion of multi-ciliated microswimmers
                      with a spherical body and a small number N (with 5<N<60) of
                      cilia with length comparable to the body radius, is
                      investigated by mesoscale hydrodynamics simulations. A
                      metachronal wave is imposed for the cilia beat, for which
                      the wave vector has both a longitudinal and a latitudinal
                      component. The dynamics and motion is characterized by the
                      swimming velocity, its variation over the beat cycle, the
                      spinning velocity around the main body axis, as well as the
                      parameters of the helical trajectory. Our simulation results
                      show that the microswimmer motion strongly depends on the
                      latitudinal wave number and the longitudinal phase lag. The
                      microswimmers are found to swim smoothly and usually spin
                      around their own axis. Chirality of the metachronal beat
                      pattern generically generates helical trajectories. In most
                      cases, the helices are thin and stretched, i.e., the helix
                      radius is about an order of magnitude smaller than the
                      pitch. The rotational diffusion of the microswimmer is
                      significantly smaller than the passive rotational diffusion
                      of the body alone, which indicates that the extended cilia
                      contribute strongly to the hydrodynamic radius. The swimming
                      velocity is found to increase with the cilia number N with a
                      slightly sublinear power law, consistent with the behavior
                      expected from the dependence of the transport velocity of
                      planar cilia arrays on the cilia separation.},
