Partial and complete wetting of droplets of active Brownian particles

F Turci, RL Jack, NB Wilding - Soft Matter, 2024 - pubs.rsc.org
We study wetting droplets formed of active Brownian particles in contact with a repulsive
potential barrier, in a wedge geometry. Our numerical results demonstrate a transition …

[HTML][HTML] Motility-induced phase separation of soft active Brownian particles

A Torres-Carbajal, FJ Sevilla - Physics of Fluids, 2024 - pubs.aip.org
Motility-induced phase separation (MIPS) is the hallmark of non-equilibrium phase transition
in active matter. Here, by means of Brownian dynamics simulations, we determine the phase …

Active phase separation: new phenomenology from non-equilibrium physics

ME Cates, C Nardini - arXiv preprint arXiv:2412.02854, 2024 - arxiv.org
In active systems, whose constituents have non-equilibrium dynamics at local level, fluid-
fluid phase separation is widely observed. Examples include the formation of membraneless …

Active particles driven by competing spatially dependent self-propulsion and external force

L Caprini, UM Bettolo Marconi, R Wittmann, H Löwen - SciPost Physics, 2022 - scipost.org
We investigate how the competing presence of a nonuniform motility landscape and an
external confining field affects the properties of active particles. We employ the active …

Active crystallization from power functional theory

S Hermann, M Schmidt - Physical Review E, 2024 - APS
We address the gas, liquid, and crystal phase behaviors of active Brownian particles in three
dimensions. The nonequilibrium force balance at coexistence leads to equality of state …

Surface Tension Between Coexisting Phases of Active Brownian Particles

L Li, Z Sun, M Yang - arXiv preprint arXiv:2308.04917, 2023 - arxiv.org
The confliction between the stable interface in phase-separated active Brownian particles
and its negative surface tension, obtained mechanically via the active pressure, has sparked …

Partial and complete wetting of droplets of active Brownian particles

RL Jack - 2024 - repository.cam.ac.uk
We study wetting droplets formed of active Brownian particles in contact with a repulsive
potential barrier, in a wedge geometry. Our numerical results demonstrate a transition …

Matière active versus gravité: équation d'état et capillarité effectives de suspensions de particules autopropulsées

AF Carreira - 2023 - theses.hal.science
La matière active est un domaine en pleine expansion au cours de ces dernières années.
Elle est constituée d'entités capables d'utiliser une source d'énergie pour produire un travail …

Collective Behavior in Inertial Active Matter

L Hecht - tuprints.ulb.tu-darmstadt.de
Active matter consists of particles which consume energy to convert it into directed motion.
Due to this local energy conversion, active matter is intrinsically out of equilibrium. This …
