Active matter, which ranges from molecular motors to groups of animals, exists at different
length scales and timescales, and various computational models have been proposed to …

Locomotion and transport of microorganisms in fluids is an essential aspect of life. Search
for food, orientation toward light, spreading of off-spring, and the formation of colonies are …

We study the statistical properties of active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particles (AOUPs). In this
simplest of models, the Gaussian white noise of overdamped Brownian colloids is replaced …

We establish the complete phase diagram of self-propelled hard disks in two spatial
dimensions from the analysis of the equation of state and the statistics of local order …

Active colloids are microscopic particles, which self-propel through viscous fluids by
converting energy extracted from their environment into directed motion. We first explain …

Self-propelled particles include both self-phoretic synthetic colloids and various
microorganisms. By continually consuming energy, they bypass the laws of equilibrium …

Active matter encompasses systems whose individual constituents dissipate energy to exert
propelling forces on their environment. These systems exhibit dynamical phenomena with …

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 …

In active matter, particles typically experience mediated interactions, which are not
constrained by Newton's third law and are therefore generically non-reciprocal. Non …

Differently from passive Brownian particles, active particles, also known as self-propelled
Brownian particles or microswimmers and nanoswimmers, are capable of taking up energy …
