QLS seminar by Victor Dossetti Romero - 26 May 2023 at 11:00 CET

[Quantitative Life Sciences]

Dear All,

On Friday, 26 May 2023 at 11:00 CET, Victor Dossetti-Romero (Instituto 
de Ciencia, Benemerita U. Autonoma de Puebla, Mexico) will give a 
seminar titled:
*
     Self-propulsion induced aggregation in a binary mixture of active 
Brownian patchy-particles*

Abstract:
Active matter systems, which may involve the study of the combined 
actions of self-propelled particles, have gained attention as a novel 
research field with widespread applications. Previous investigations 
have highlighted that the presence of self-propulsion is responsible for 
the emergence of collective phenomena among interacting particles, 
phenomena that do not arise when particles solely rely on thermal and 
diffusive effects for their motion. In this research, we demonstrate the 
influence of self-propulsion on the formation of clusters in a binary 
mixture of active patchy-particles. These particles interact through 
both attractive and repulsive short-ranged forces. Gaining a deeper 
comprehension of such collective behaviors, along with others observed 
in active matter, holds the potential for future technological advancements.
