Edge Currents Shape Condensates in Chiral Active Matter
Boyi Wang, Patrick Pietzonka, Frank Jülicher
Chiral active matter, which breaks both parity symmetry and time-reversal symmetry, is ubiquitous in living systems. Here, we introduce a minimal two-dimensional chiral active latt…
Accuracy Comes at a Cost: Optimal Localisation Against a Flow
Till Welker, Patrick Pietzonka
How much work does it cost for a propelled particle to stay localised near a stationary target, defying both thermal noise and a constant flow that would carry it away? We study th…
Condensate Formation in a Chiral Lattice Gas
Boyi Wang, Frank Jülicher, Patrick Pietzonka
We investigate the formation of condensates in a binary lattice gas in the presence of chiral interactions. These interactions differ between a given microscopic configuration and…
Thermodynamic cost for precision of general counting observables
Patrick Pietzonka, Francesco Coghi
We analytically derive universal bounds that describe the trade-off between thermodynamic cost and precision in a sequence of events related to some internal changes of an otherwis…
Second law for active heat engines
Arya Datta, Patrick Pietzonka, Andre C Barato
Macroscopic cyclic heat engines have been a major motivation for the emergence of thermodynamics. In the last decade, cyclic heat engines that have large fluctuations and operate a…
Classical pendulum clocks break the thermodynamic uncertainty relation
Patrick Pietzonka
The thermodynamic uncertainty relation expresses a seemingly universal trade-off between the cost for driving an autonomous system and precision in any output observable. It has so…
