Abstract: Active matter systems are known to drive directed transport and rotation when coupled to passive inclusions. We study the dynamics of a geometrically symmetric inclusion, termed a torquer, in a bath of chiral active Brownian… read more here.

Abstract: Langevin dynamics simulations are employed to study the dynamical properties of a flexible polymer in an active bath. The diffusion of the centre of mass and end-to-end distance fluctuation are particularly analysed. We modulate both… read more here.

Abstract: Colloidal probes immersed in an active bath have been found to behave like active particles themselves. Here, we use simulations to investigate the mechanisms behind this behavior. We find that the active motion of the… read more here.
