In active matter systems, individual constituents convert energy into non-conservative forces
or motion at the microscale, leading to morphological features and transport properties that …

Out of equilibrium, a lack of reciprocity is the rule rather than the exception. Non-reciprocity
occurs, for instance, in active matter,,,,–, non-equilibrium systems,–, networks of neurons …

Active crystals are highly ordered structures that emerge from the self-organization of motile
objects, and have been widely studied in synthetic, and bacterial, active matter. Whether …

Swimming microrobots that are energized by external magnetic fields exhibit a variety of
intriguing collective behaviors, ranging from dynamic self-organization to coherent motion; …

Nanoparticle assembly and attachment are common pathways of crystal growth by which
particles organize into larger scale materials with hierarchical structure and long-range …
