what causes chromosomes to moves toward the pole in anaphase of mitosis?

Hi friends…This problem has really gave me a headache. I want to know how the chromosomes in the anaphase during mitosis moves towards the opposite poles. I have gone through some of the hypothesis, but those were quite old ones! Really I want to know what the recent studies in the field of Cell Cycle what to say on this matter…Please provide me with any web links or thoughts on this matter

ANY HELP WILL BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED!

They are moved by spindle fibers made of micro-tubules. The spindles are prepared in interphase.
