Glassy dynamics in dense systems of active particles

L Berthier, E Flenner, G Szamel - The Journal of chemical physics, 2019 - pubs.aip.org
Despite the diversity of materials designated as active matter, virtually all active systems
undergo a form of dynamic arrest when crowding and activity compete, reminiscent of the …

Networks and hierarchies: How amorphous materials learn to remember

M Mungan, S Sastry, K Dahmen, I Regev - Physical review letters, 2019 - APS
