Abstract
Active matter is remarkably prone to condensing onto subsets of lower dimension, ascending concentration gradients without the help of interparticle attraction. My talk will present theory, experiments and simulation of such anti-diffusion and layering in several “dry” and “wet” active systems. Interestingly, these systems have little in common other than activity. The mechanisms underlying condensation, which I will explain in each case, are novel and diverse.
Series This talk is part of the Isaac Newton Institute Seminar Series series.
