Directional Symmetry Breaking of Spherical Active Colloids by Magnetoviscous Coupling
Ziyang Zhou, Takuya Kobayashi, Keita Saito +5
Harnessing active matter calls for strategies that break the directional symmetry of self-propelled motion without altering the propulsion mechanism itself. Here, we show that magn…

Boundary-shape driven transitions in vortex and oscillatory dynamics of confined epithelial cells
Ryo Ienaga, Kazuyuki Shigeta, Tatsuya Fukuyama +2
Controlling the collective motion of epithelial cell populations is fundamental for understanding multicellular self-organization and for advancing tissue engineering. Under spatia…
