A Drop of Active Matter [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Mechanics, 2012
We study theoretically the hydrodynamics of a fluid drop containing oriented filaments endowed with active contractile or extensile stresses and placed on a solid surface.

Active matter clusters at interfaces [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Materials, 2016
Collective and directed motility or swarming is an emergent phenomenon displayed by many self-organized assemblies of active biological matter such as clusters of embryonic cells during tissue development, cancerous cells during tumor formation and ...

Active Matter [PDF]

open access: bronzeThe European Physical Journal E, 2013
The study of systems with sustained energy uptake and dissipation at the scale of the constituent particles is an area of central interest in nonequilibrium statistical physics. Identifying such systems as a distinct category -- Active Matter -- unifies our understanding of autonomous collective move- ment in the living world and in some surprising ...

Active matter, then and now [PDF]

open access: greenHistory and Philosophy of the Life Sciences, 2016
Historically, living was divided from dead, inert matter by its autonomous activity. Today, a number of materials not themselves alive are characterized as having inherent activity, and this activity has become the subject of a hot new field of physics, "Active Matter", or "Soft matter become alive." For active matter scientists, the relation of ...

Critical phenomena in active matter [PDF]

open access: greenPhysical Review E, 2016
We investigate the effect of self-propulsion on a mean-field order-disorder transition. Starting from a $ ^4$ scalar field theory subject to an exponentially correlated noise, we exploit the Unified Colored Noise Approximation to map the non-equilibrium active dynamics onto an effective equilibrium one.
