Interactions in active colloids [PDF]
Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2021 The past two decades have seen a remarkable progress in the development of synthetic colloidal agents which are capable of creating directed motion in an unbiased environment at the microscale.

How to steer active colloids up a vertical wall [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2023 An important challenge in active matter lies in harnessing useful global work from entities that produce work locally, e.g., via self-propulsion. We investigate here the active matter version of a classical capillary rise effect, by considering a non ...

Hydrodynamic effects on the liquid-hexatic transition of active colloids. [PDF]
Eur Phys J E Soft Matter, 2022 We study numerically the role of hydrodynamics in the liquid-hexatic transition of active colloids at intermediate activity, where motility induced phase separation (MIPS) does not occur.

Review: Interactions of Active Colloids with Passive Tracers [PDF]
Condensed Matter, 2019 Collective phenomena existing universally in both biological systems and artificial active matter are increasingly attracting interest. The interactions can be grouped into active-active and active-passive ones, where the reports on the purely active ...

Island hopping of active colloids. [PDF]
Soft Matter, 2023 Individual self-propelled colloidal particles, like active Brownian particles (ABP) or run-and-tumble (RT) swimmers, exhibit characteristic and well-known motion patterns.

The interplay between chemo-phoretic interactions and crowding in active colloids.
Soft Matter, 2023 Many motile microorganisms communicate with each other and their environments via chemical signaling which leads to long-range interactions mediated by self-generated chemical gradients.

Collective behavior of thermophoretic dimeric active colloids in three-dimensional bulk. [PDF]
Eur Phys J E Soft Matter, 2021 Colloids driven by phoresis constitute one of the main avenues for the design of synthetic microswimmers. For these swimmers, the specific form of the phoretic and hydrodynamic interactions dramatically influences their dynamics.
