Aggregation and sedimentation of active Brownian particles at constant affinity
Andreas Fischer, Arkya Chatterjee, Thomas Speck
We study the motility-induced phase separation of active particles driven through the interconversion of two chemical species controlled by ideal reservoirs (chemiostats). As a con…
Active Brownian particles driven by constant affinity
Thomas Speck
Experimental realizations of self-propelled colloidal Janus particles exploit the conversion of free energy into directed motion. One route are phoretic mechanisms that can be mode…
Devitrification of the Kob-Andersen glass former: Competition with the locally favored structure
Francesco Turci, C. Patrick Royall, Thomas Speck
Supercooled liquids are kinetically trapped materials in which the transition to a thermodynamically more stable state with long-range order is strongly suppressed. To assess the g…
Is directed percolation in colloid-polymer mixtures linked to dynamic arrest?
David Richard, C. Patrick Royall, Thomas Speck
Using computer simulations, we study the dynamic arrest in a schematic model of colloid-polymer mixtures combining short-ranged attractions with long-ranged repulsions. The arreste…
Transmission of torque at the nanoscale
Ian Williams, Erdal C. Oğuz, Thomas Speck +3
In macroscopic mechanical devices torque is transmitted through gearwheels and clutches. In the construction of devices at the nanoscale, torque and its transmission through soft m…
Highly controlled optical transport of cold atoms into a hollow-core fiber
Maria Langbecker, Ronja Wirtz, Fabian Knoch +3
We report on an efficient and highly controlled cold atom hollow-core fiber interface, suitable for quantum simulation, information, and sensing. The main focus of this manuscript…
