We investigate the self-propulsion of an inertial active particle confined in a two-dimensional harmonic trap. The particle is suspended in a non-Newtonian or viscoelastic suspension with a friction kernel that decays exponentially with a…
We study the non-equilibrium properties of non interacting active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particles (AOUP) subject to an external nonuniform field using a Fokker-Planck approach with a focus on the linear response and time-correlation functions.…
Active matter broadly covers the dynamics of self-propelled particles. While the onset of collective behavior in homogenous active systems is relatively well understood, the effect of inhomogeneities such as obstacles and traps lacks…
The dynamics of an active walker in a harmonic potential is studied experimentally, numerically and theoretically. At odds with usual models of self-propelled particles, we identify two dynamical states for which the particle condensates at…
We study an interacting high-density one-dimensional system of self-propelled particles described by the Active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle (AOUP) model where, even in the absence of alignment interactions, velocity and energy domains…
We study the effect of spatial confinement on the strength of propulsive diffusiophoretic forces acting on a particle that generates density gradients by exploiting the chemical free energy of its environment. Using a recently proposed…
Equilibrium mapping techniques for nonaligning self-propelled particles have made it possible to predict the density profile of an active ideal gas in a wide variety of external potentials, however they fail when the self-propulsion is very…
The effects of quenched disorder on a single and many active run-and-tumble particles is studied in one dimension. For a single particle, we consider both the steady-state distribution and the particle's dynamics subject to disorder in…
The encounter of diffusing entities underlies a wide range of natural phenomena. The dynamics of these first-passage dynamics are strongly influenced by confining geometries. Confinement modifies microscopic diffusion through conservative…
The dynamics and the steady states of a point-like tracer particle immersed in a confined critical fluid are studied. The fluid is modeled field-theoretically in terms of an order parameter (concentration or density field) obeying…
We study two types of active (self-propelled) macroscopic particles under confinement: camphor surfers and hexbug crawlers, using a combined experimental, theoretical, and numerical approach. Unlike widely studied microscopic active…
Particle number fluctuations $N(t)$, measured in virtual observation boxes of an image or a simulation, offer a way to quantify particle dynamics when particle tracking is impractical, such as in high-density systems. While traditionally…
We study the dynamics of one-dimensional active particles confined in a double-well potential, focusing on the escape properties of the system, such as the mean escape time from a well. We first consider a single-particle both in near and…
The stochastic dynamics of an active particle undergoing a constant speed and additionally driven by an overall fluctuating torque is investigated. The random torque forces are expressed by a stochastic differential equation for the angular…
We consider an inertial active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particle self-propelling in a saw-tooth ratchet potential. Using the Langevin simulation and matrix continued fraction method, the particle transport, steady state diffusion, and coherence…
We study analytically how noninteracting weakly active particles, for which passive Brownian diffusion cannot be neglected and activity can be treated perturbatively, distribute and behave near boundaries in various geometries. In…
An $N$-particle system with stochastic interactions is considered. Interactions are driven by a Brownian noise term and total energy conservation is imposed. The evolution of the system, in velocity space, is a diffusion on a…
We study a system of active particles with soft repulsive interactions that lead to an active cluster-crystal phase in two dimensions. We use two different modelizations of the active force - Active Brownian particles (ABP) and…
Pattern formation often occurs in confined systems, yet how boundaries shape patterning dynamics is unclear. We develop techniques to analyze confinement effects in nonlocal advection-diffusion equations, which generically capture the…
Nonreciprocal interactions are known to produce distinctive dynamics in active matter. To shed light on how the stationary state of such systems is affected by breaking reciprocity, we consider active Ornstein-Uhlenbeck particles coupled…
