Self-propulsion protocols for swift non-equilibrium state transitions and enhanced cooling in active systems

Kristian Stølevik Olsen, Hartmut Löwen

A control framework is proposed for inducing non-equilibrium state transitions in confined active matter, where the statistics of self-propulsion serve as the only control paramete…

Inverse engineering of cooling protocols: from normal behavior to Mpemba effects

Hartmut Löwen

When a cup of hot coffee is suddenly put into a cold environment, it cools down as a function of time until the internal temperature of the coffee equals the ext…

Translational and Rotational Temperature Difference in Coexisting Phases of Inertial Active Dumbbells

Subhasish Chaki, Hartmut Löwen

We investigate the effect of translational and rotational inertia on motility-induced phase separation in underdamped active dumbbells and identify the emergence of four distinct k…

Active thermodynamics of inertial chiral active gases: equation of state and edge currents

Lorenzo Caprini, Umberto Marini Bettolo Marconi, Benno Liebchen +1

One of the most fundamental quests in the physics of active matter concerns the existence of a comprehensive theory for its macroscopic properties, i.e. an ``active thermodynamics'…

Windmilling clusters of active quadrupoles

Margaret Rosenberg, Hartmut Löwen

Active matter has thrived in recent years, driven both by the insight that it underlies fundamental processes in nature, and by its vast potential for applications. This allows for…

Jerky chiral active particles

Stephy Jose, Hartmut Löwen

We introduce jerky chiral active Brownian particles (jcABPs), a generalization of conventional chiral active Brownian particles (cABPs) subjected to jerk, the time derivative of ac…
