Active systems are driven out of equilibrium by exchanging energy and momentum with their
environment. This endows them with anomalous mechanical properties that are reviewed in …

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

We reexamine results obtained with the recently proposed density functional theory
framework based on forces (force-DFT)[SM Tschopp, Phys. Rev. E 106, 014115 (2022) 2470 …

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 …

We investigate the structural and dynamic properties of active Brownian particles (APs)
confined within a soft annulus-shaped channel. Depending on the strength of the …

While the collective dynamics of spherical active Brownian particles is relatively well
understood by now, the much more complex dynamics of nonspherical active particles still …

The motility-induced phase separation (MIPS) phenomenon in active matter has been of
great interest for the past decade or so. A central conceptual puzzle is that this behavior …

When two active Brownian particles collide, they slide along each other until they can
continue their free motion. For persistence lengths much larger than the particle diameter …

Phase separation is a thermodynamic process used by all living organisms since the origin
of life to rapidly assemble and disassemble membraneless condensates in response to …

Motility and nonreciprocity are two primary mechanisms for self-organization in active matter.
In a recent study [Phys. Rev. Lett. 131, 148301 (2023)], we explored their joint influence in a …
