Active spheres induce Marangoni flows that drive collective dynamics
Martin Wittmann, Mihail N. Popescu, Alvaro Domínguez +1
For monolayers of chemically active particles at a fluid interface, collective dynamics are predicted to arise owing to activity-induced Marangoni flow even if the particles are no…
Self-motility of an active particle induced by correlations in the surrounding solution
Alvaro Domínguez, M. N. Popescu, C. M. Rohwer +1
Current models of phoretic transport rely on molecular forces creating a "diffuse" particle-fluid interface. We investigate theoretically an alternative mechanism, in which a diffu…
Phase coexistence in a monolayer of active particles induced by Marangoni flows
Alvaro Domínguez, Mihail N. Popescu
Thermally or chemically active colloids generate thermodynamic gradients in the solution in which they are immersed and thereby induce hydrodynamic flows that affect their dynamica…
Work fluctuation theorems and free energy from kinetic theory
J. Javier Brey, M. J. Ruiz-Montero, Alvaro Dominguez
The formulation of the First and Second Principles of thermodynamics for a particle in contact with a heat bath and submitted to an external force is analyzed, by means of the Bolt…
Theory of anomalous collective diffusion in colloidal monolayers on a spherical interface
Alvaro Domínguez
A planar colloidal monolayer exhibits anomalous collective diffusion due to the hydrodynamic interactions. We investigate how this behavior is affected by the curvature of the mono…
Onset of anomalous diffusion in colloids confined to quasi-monolayers
Johannes Bleibel, Alvaro Domínguez, Martin Oettel
It has been recently shown that a colloidal monolayer, e.g., formed at a fluid interface or by means of a suitable confining potential, exhibits anomalous collective diffusion. Thi…
