Odd transport in a two-temperature Brownian dimer
Iman Abdoli, Hartmut Löwen
We investigate a two-temperature Brownian dimer with odd mobility, characterized by antisymmetric transport coefficients, as a controlled paradigm for odd nonequilibrium dynamics.…

Curvature-induced smectic-C order of tangentially anchored hard spherocylinders on a sphere with a rigidly locked director field
Jonathan Washburn, Hartmut Löwen, Elshad Allahyarov
We study the strict locked-orientation limit of hard spherocylinders on a sphere, in which the rod axes are rigidly locked to a prescribed tangential director field and cannot reor…

Quantum-enabled active matter at the atomic scale
Sabrina Burgardt, Julian FeÃ, Alexander Guthmann +8
Active matter comprises particles that extract energy from their local environment and convert it into motion. Although active particles have been miniaturized down to the nanoscal…
