Irreversibility and symmetry breaking in the creation and annihilation of defects in active living matter
Avraham Beer, Efraim Dov Neimand, Yuv Agarwal +4
Active living matter continuously creates and annihilates topological defects in a process that remains poorly understood. Here, we investigate these dynamics in two distinct activ…

Chirality across scales in tissue dynamics
Sihan Chen, Doruk Efe Gökmen, Michel Fruchart +4
Chiral processes that lack mirror symmetry pervade nature from enantioselective molecular interactions to the asymmetric development of organisms. An outstanding challenge at the i…
