The non-thermal nature of self-propelling colloids offers new insights into non-equilibrium physics. The central mathematical model to describe their trajectories is active Brownian motion, where a particle moves with a constant speed,…

A distinguishing feature of active particles is the nature of the non-equilibrium noise driving their dynamics. Control of these noise properties is, therefore, of both fundamental and applied interest. We demonstrate emergent tuning of the…
Observing spontaneous velocity ordering or flocking during motility induced phase separation (MIPS) in a system of spherical active Brownian particles without alignment interaction is challenging. We take up this problem by performing…
