Orientational dynamics of a heated Janus particle [PDF]

The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2018
Using large scale molecular dynamics simulations, we study the orientational dynamics of a heated Janus particle which exhibits self-propulsion. The asymmetry in the microscopic interaction of the colloid with the solvent is implemented by choosing different wetting parameters for the two halves of the sphere.
