Dynamical-state switching controls active microrod navigation in porous media
Ana Cazorla, Maria L. Jimenez, Raul A. Rica-Alarcon +2
Adaptive search and travel strategies enable biological swimmers to explore complex environments, but remain difficult to encode in minimal synthetic microswimmers. Here, we unveil…

Memory-aware acceleration of orientational dynamics in nanoparticle suspensions
Miguel Ibáñez, Raúl A. Rica-Alarcón, María L. Jiménez
The relaxation of stochastic systems after sudden perturbations is constrained by speed limits and often reveals memory effects that hinder attempts to accelerate their dynamics. H…
