Self-propelled particles, which convert energy into mechanical motion, exhibit inertia if they
have a macroscopic size or move inside a gaseous medium, in contrast to micron-sized …

Active constituents burn fuel to sustain individual motion, giving rise to collective effects that
are not seen in systems at thermal equilibrium, such as phase separation with purely …

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 …

Sampling the collective, dynamical fluctuations that lead to nonequilibrium pattern formation
requires probing rare regions of trajectory space. Recent approaches to this problem, based …

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 for …

We analyze the dynamics of a passive colloidal probe immersed in an active bath using an
optical trap to study three physical processes:(1) the nonequilibrium fluctuations transferred …

Active matter may sometimes behave almost indistinguishably from equilibrium matter. This
is particularly evident for some particle-based models and active field-theories close to a …

We study the dynamics of one-dimensional active particles confined in a double-well
potential, focusing on the escape properties of the system, such as the mean escape time …

We derive a version of the so-called “best Fokker-Planck approximation”(BFPA) to describe
the spatial properties of interacting active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particles in arbitrary spatial …

We present a path-integral formulation of the motion of a particle subjected to fluctuating
active and thermal forces. This general framework predicts the statistical behavior …
