Thermodynamics of active field theories: Energetic cost of coupling to reservoirs
Tomer Markovich, Étienne Fodor, Elsen Tjhung +1
The hallmark of active matter is the autonomous directed motion of its microscopic constituents driven by consumption of energy resources. This leads to the emergence of large scal…
Odd viscosity in active matter: microscopic origin and 3D effects
Tomer Markovich, Tom C. Lubensky
In common fluids, viscosity is associated with dissipation. However, when time-reversal-symmetry is broken a new type of non-dissipative `viscosity' may emerge. Recent theories and…
Motor-free Contractility in Active Gels
Sihan Chen, Tomer Markovich, F. C. MacKintosh
Animal cells form contractile structures to promote various functions, from cell motility to cell division. Force generation in these structures is often due to molecular motors su…
