Capillary interfacial tension in active phase separation
Giordano Fausti, Elsen Tjhung, Michael Cates +1
In passive fluid-fluid phase separation, a single interfacial tension sets both the capillary fluctuations of the interface and the rate of Ostwald ripening. We show that these phe…

Extracting maximum power from active colloidal heat engines
D. Martin, C. Nardini, M. E. Cates +1
Colloidal heat engines extract power out of a fluctuating bath by manipulating a confined tracer. Considering a self-propelled tracer surrounded by a bath of passive colloids, we o…
