Near-field Hydrodynamics Disentangles Angular Correlations in Confined Active Suspensions
Changle Liao, Haruki Hayano, Yuto Uesugi +3
Spatial confinement profoundly impacts the transport and self-organization of active matter across diverse biological systems. While the collective orders in confined active matter…
Various phases of active matter emerging from bacteria and their implications
Kazumasa A. Takeuchi, Daiki Nishiguchi
In this perspective article, we discuss bacterial populations as a model system of active matter. It allows for the exploration and characterization of various phases of active mat…
Designing topological edge states in bacterial active matter
Yoshihito Uchida, Daiki Nishiguchi, Kazumasa A. Takeuchi
Topology provides a unifying framework for understanding robust transport through protected edge states arising from nontrivial wavenumber topology. Extending these concepts to act…
Learning general pair interactions between self-propelled particles
Jérôme Hem, Alexis Poncet, Pierre Ronceray +2
Synthetic active matter systems, such as active colloids, often have complex interactions, which can be of hydrodynamic, chemical or electrostatic origin and cannot be computed fro…
