Biaxial nematic order in fundamental measure theory
Anouar El Moumane, Michael te Vrugt, Hartmut Löwen +1
Liquid crystals consisting of biaxial particles can exhibit a much richer phase behavior than their uniaxial counterparts. Usually, one has to rely on simulation results to underst…
Emergent memory from tapping collisions in active granular matter
Lorenzo Caprini, Anton Ldov, Rahul Kumar Gupta +4
In an equilibrium thermal environment, random elastic collisions between background particles and a tracer establish the picture of Brownian motion fulfilling the celebrated Einste…
Foundation of classical dynamical density functional theory: uniqueness of time-dependent density-potential mappings
Michael Andreas Klatt, Christian Bair, Hartmut Löwen +1
When can we map a classical density profile to an external potential? In equilibrium, without time dependence, the one-body density is known to specify the external potential that…
Statistics of carrier-cargo complexes
René Wittmann, Paul A. Monderkamp, Hartmut Löwen
We explore the statistics of assembling soft-matter building blocks to investigate the uptake and encapsulation of cargo particles by carriers engulfing their load. While the such…
Colloidal smectics in button-like confinements: experiment and theory
René Wittmann, Paul A. Monderkamp, Jingmin Xia +5
Liquid crystals can self-organize into a layered smectic phase. While the smectic layers are typically straight forming a lamellar pattern in bulk, external confinement may drastic…
Dynamics of active particles with translational and rotational inertia
Alexander R. Sprenger, Lorenzo Caprini, Hartmut Löwen +1
Inertial effects affecting both the translational and rotational dynamics are inherent to a broad range of active systems at the macroscopic scale. Thus, there is a pivotal need fo…
