How to define temperature in active systems?

Lukas Hecht, Lorenzo Caprini, Hartmut Löwen +1

We are used to measure temperature with a thermometer and we know from everyday life that different types of thermometers measure the same temperature. This experience can be based…

AMEP: The Active Matter Evaluation Package for Python

Lukas Hecht, Kay-Robert Dormann, Kai Luca Spanheimer +5

The Active Matter Evaluation Package (AMEP) is a Python library for analyzing simulation data of particle-based and continuum simulations. It provides a powerful and simple interfa…

Motility-induced coexistence of a hot liquid and a cold gas

Lukas Hecht, Iris Dong, Benno Liebchen

If two phases exist at the same time, such as a gas and a liquid, they have the same temperature. This fundamental law of equilibrium physics is known to apply even to many non-equ…

Writing in Water

Nadir Möller, Lukas Hecht, Ran Niu +2

Writing is an ancient communication technique dating back at least 30,000 years. While even sophisticated contemporary writing techniques hinge on solid surfaces for engraving or t…

Active Refrigerators Powered by Inertia

Lukas Hecht, Suvendu Mandal, Hartmut Löwen +1

We present the operational principle for a refrigerator which uses inertial effects in active Brownian particles to locally reduce their (kinetic) temperature by two orders of magn…

MD Simulations of Charged Binary Mixtures Reveal a Generic Relation Between High- and Low-Temperature Behavior

L. Hecht, R. Horstmann, B. Liebchen +1

Experimental studies of the glassy slowdown in molecular liquids indicate that the high-temperature activation energy of glass-forming liquids is directly related to t…
