Inferring interactions between active particles using harmonic traps

Arnaud Compagnie, Joscha Mecke, Ivo Buttinoni +1

Quantifying the interactions between active Janus particles remains a challenge that needs to be addressed to describe their collective behaviour. Inspired by a photonic force micr…

Confinement-Induced Pumping of Chiral Active Fluids

Joscha Mecke, Yongxiang Gao, Marisol Ripoll

Chiral active fluids, composed of continuously rotating active constituents, exhibit a wealth of nonequilibrium phenomena arising from the interplay of activity, hydrodynamic inter…

Probing scale-dependent liveliness with nonequilibrium thermospectroscopy

Joscha Mecke, Klaus Kroy

Probing the spatially heterogeneous activity across scales is a major challenge in living matter. Energy injection at diverse length scales leads to mode coupling, inter-modal ener…

Obstacle-tuned transition from chaotic to coherent vortex flows and odd diffusion in chiral active fluids

Joscha Mecke, Yongxiang Gao, Marisol Ripoll

The interaction of a suspension of rotating colloids with a periodically patterned structure is here investigated by means of continuum theoretical predictions and hydrodynamic sim…

Pressure in active matter

Guo Yu, Ruiyao Li, Fukang Li +5

In the last decade, the study of pressure in active matter has attracted growing attention due to its fundamental relevance to nonequilibrium statistical physics. Active matter sys…

Chiral active systems near a substrate: Emergent damping length controlled by fluid friction

Joscha Mecke, Yongxiang Gao, Gerhard Gompper +1

Chiral active fluids show the emergence of a turbulent behavior characterized by multiple dynamic vortices whose maximum size is specific for each experimental system. This is in c…
