Bulk and microphase separation in chiral active systems
Sumeja BurekoviÄ, S. J. Kole, Ananyo Maitra +1
The paper investigates how chirality in active particle systems influences phase separation, revealing bulk and microphase separation regimes, chiral vapor bubbles, and traveling w…
Eppur si muove: Shape of topological defects -- and consequent motion -- in active nematics
Giacomo Marco La Montagna, Sumeja Burekovic, Ananyo Maitra +1
Topological defects in systems with liquid-crystalline order are crucial in determining their large-scale properties. In active systems, they are known to have properties impossibl…
Active Cahn-Hilliard theory for nonequilibrium phase separation: quantitative macroscopic predictions and a microscopic derivation
Sumeja BurekoviÄ, Sumeja Bureković, Filippo De Luca +2
Phase-separating active systems can display phenomenology that is impossible in equilibrium. The binodal densities are not solely determined by a bulk (effective) free energy, but…
