Does the configurational entropy of polydisperse particles exist?

Misaki Ozawa, Ludovic Berthier

Classical particle systems characterized by continuous size polydispersity, such as colloidal materials, are not straightforwardly described using statistical mechanics, since fund…

Discontinuous fluidisation transition in assemblies of actively-deforming particles: A new paradigm for collective motion in dense active materials

Elsen Tjhung, Ludovic Berthier

Tracking experiments in dense biological tissues reveal a diversity of sources f or local energy injection at the cell scale. The effect of cell motility has been largely studied,…

The nonequilibrium glassy dynamics of self-propelled particles

Elijah Flenner, Grzegorz Szamel, Ludovic Berthier

We study the glassy dynamics taking place in dense assemblies of athermal active particles that are driven solely by a nonequilibrium self-propulsion mechanism. Active forces are m…

Ultra-long-range dynamic correlations in a microscopic model for aging gels

Pinaki Chaudhuri, Ludovic Berthier

We use large-scale computer simulations to explore the non-equilibrium aging dynamics in a microscopic model for colloidal gels. We find that gelation resulting from a kinetically-…

The melting of stable glasses is governed by nucleation-and-growth dynamics

Robert L. Jack, Ludovic Berthier

We discuss the microscopic mechanisms by which low-temperature amorphous states, such as ultrastable glasses, transform into equilibrium fluids, after a sudden temperature increase…
