Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Active matter is a term used to describe matter that is composed of a large number of self-propelled active ‘particles’ that individually convert stored or ambient energy into systematic motion. Examples include a flock of birds, a school of fish, or at smaller scales a suspension of bacteria or even the collective motion within a human cell. When viewed collectively, active matter is an out-of-equilibrium material. This talk focuses on active matter systems where the active particles are very small, for example bacteria or chemically active colloidal particles. The motion of small active particles in homogeneous Newtonian fluids has received considerable attention, with interest ranging from phoretic propulsion to biological locomotion, whereas studies on active bodies immersed in inhomogeneous fluids are comparatively scarce. In this talk I will show how the dynamics of active particles can be dramatically altered by the introduction of fluid inhomogeneity and discuss the effects of spatial variations of fluid density, viscosity, and other fluid complexity.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
