A very recent observation on the membrane mediated attraction and orderedaggregation of colloidal particles bound to giant phospholipid vesicles (I.Koltover, J. O. R\"{a}dler, C. R. Safinya, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 82},1991(1999)) is investigated theoretically within the frame of Helfrichcurvature elasticity theory of lipid bilayer fluid membrane. Since the concaveor waist regions of the vesicle possess the highest local bending energydensity, the aggregation of colloidal beads on these places can reduce theelastic energy in maximum. Our calculation shows that a bead in the concaveregion lowers its energy $\sim 20 k_B T$. For an axisymmetrical dumbbellvesicle, the local curvature energy density along the waist is equally ofmaximum, the beads can thus be distributed freely with varying separationdistance.Comment: 12 pages, 2 figures.
