Statistical Physics and Complexity Group meeting
Steady-state currents in active matter: origin and implications
- Event time: 11:30am until 12:30pm
- Event date: 20th May 2020
- Speaker: Professor Yariv Kafri (Technion)
- Location: Online - see email.
Event details
It is well known that under rather generic circumstances active systems can generate currents due to, say, an external potential. In the talk, I will discuss several implications of this fact on the physics of different systems. Specifically, I will focus on interactions between objects immersed in an active fluid, the effects of disorder on active particles, and escape problems.
