Topological states in chiral active matter: dynamic blue phases and active half-skyrmions
Luuk Metselaar, Amin Doostmohammadi, Julia M. Yeomans
We numerically study the dynamics of two-dimensional blue phases in active chiral liquid crystals. We show that introducing contractile activity results in stabilised blue phases,…

Two-dimensional, blue phase tactoids
Luuk Metselaar, Amin Doostmohammadi, Julia M. Yeomans
We use full nematohydrodynamic simulations to study the statics and dynamics of monolayers of cholesteric liquid crystals. Using chirality and temperature as control parameters we…
