Intermittency, Avalanches and Aging in Extremely Persistent Active Matter
Offered By: Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a 44-minute conference talk on "Intermittency, avalanches and aging in extremely persistent active matter" presented by Peter Sollich from the University of Goettingen. Delivered as part of the "The Many Faces of Active Mechanics" conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, this presentation delves into the fascinating world of active matter and its collective phenomena. Gain insights into the behavior of active solids, including active hydrogels, metamaterials, and mechanical structures composed of linked robotic components. Discover how energy-consuming components interact to create surprising behaviors in active fluids, from spontaneous flow to flocking and condensation without attractive interactions. Learn about the relevance of the active matter paradigm to diverse systems, including living organisms, cell assemblies, and synthetically engineered materials. Understand the conference's aim to connect distinct branches of active matter research, identify overarching principles, and explore areas for future breakthroughs in this cutting-edge field of study.
