Abstract: The presence of obstacles is intuitively expected to hinder the diffusive transport of active particles. However, for chiral active particles, a low density of obstacles near a surface can enhance their diffusive behavior. Here, we… read more here.

Abstract: Skyrmions are topologically protected vortex-like excitations that hold promise for applications such as information processing and electron manipulation. Here we combine theoretical analysis and numerical simulations to show that skyrmions can spontaneously emerge in chiral… read more here.

Abstract: We study the diffusive behavior of chiral active (self-propelled) Brownian particles in a two-dimensional microchannel with a Poiseuille flow. Using numerical simulations, we show that the behavior of the transport coefficients of particles, for example,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.126.248001
Abstract: In equilibrium liquid crystals, chirality leads to a variety of spectacular three-dimensional structures, but chiral and achiral phases with the same broken continuous symmetries have identical long-time, large-scale dynamics. In this Letter, starting from active… read more here.
