This project explores the behavior of self-propelled particles, such as bacteria and Janus colloids, to understand their motion and interactions. It aims to develop theoretical models to describe pattern formation in active matter, which can inform the design of soft materials.
Self-propelled particles such as bacteria, or 'Janus colloids' partially coated with catalyst, consume energy from their environment and convert it into systematic motion.
Interacting ensembles of these particles compose so-called active matter which is intrinsically driven out of thermodynamic equilibrium.
This allows for a rich and unusual phenomenology that includes condensation and phase separation in systems with purely repulsive interactions; giant density fluctuations; and various types o…
