Living crystals of light-activated colloidal surfers

J Palacci, S Sacanna, AP Steinberg, DJ Pine… - Science, 2013 - science.org
Spontaneous formation of colonies of bacteria or flocks of birds are examples of self-
organization in active living matter. Here, we demonstrate a form of self-organization from …

Dynamical clustering and phase separation in suspensions of self-propelled colloidal particles

I Buttinoni, J Bialké, F Kümmel, H Löwen, C Bechinger… - Physical review …, 2013 - APS
We study experimentally and numerically a (quasi-) two-dimensional colloidal suspension of
self-propelled spherical particles. The particles are carbon-coated Janus particles, which are …

Active Brownian particles: From individual to collective stochastic dynamics

P Romanczuk, M Bär, W Ebeling, B Lindner… - The European Physical …, 2012 - Springer
We review theoretical models of individual motility as well as collective dynamics and
pattern formation of active particles. We focus on simple models of active dynamics with a …

Criticality in the brain: A synthesis of neurobiology, models and cognition

L Cocchi, LL Gollo, A Zalesky, M Breakspear - Progress in neurobiology, 2017 - Elsevier
Cognitive function requires the coordination of neural activity across many scales, from
neurons and circuits to large-scale networks. As such, it is unlikely that an explanatory …

Meso-scale turbulence in living fluids

HH Wensink, J Dunkel, S Heidenreich… - Proceedings of the …, 2012 - National Acad Sciences
