Defect states in compressible active polar fluids with turnover
Ludovic Dumoulin, Carles Blanch-Mercader, Karsten Kruse
Biological active matter like the cytoskeleton or tissues are characterized by their ability to transform chemical energy into mechanical stress. In addition, it often exhibits ori…
