Dense active systems are widespread in nature, examples range from bacterial colonies to
biological tissues. Dense clusters of active particles can be obtained by increasing the …

We study how inertia affects the behavior of self-propelled particles moving through a
viscous solvent by employing the underdamped version of the active Ornstein–Uhlenbeck …

We investigate the effect of rotational inertia on the collective phenomena of underdamped
active systems and show that the increase of the moment of inertia of each particle favors …

In an equilibrium thermal environment, random elastic collisions between background
particles and a tracer establish the picture of Brownian motion fulfilling the celebrated …

Recently, it has been discovered that systems of active Brownian particles (APB) at high
density organise their velocities into coherent domains showing large spatial structures in …

We present the operational principle for a refrigerator that uses inertial effects in active
Brownian particles to locally reduce their (kinetic) temperature by 2 orders of magnitude …

Dynamics is central to living systems. Many experiments in the last two decades have
revealed glassy dynamics in diverse biological systems, showing a transition between a …

We investigate a model for a Stirling-like engine consisting of a passive Brownian particle
confined by a harmonic potential and interacting with a suspension of active Brownian …

Active scalar baths consisting of active Brownian particles are characterized by a non-
Gaussian velocity distribution, a kinetic temperature, and a diffusion coefficient that scale …

We study the dynamics of clusters of active Brownian disks generated by motility-induced
phase separation, by applying an algorithm that we devised to track cluster trajectories. We …
