A 70-Year-Old Dispersion Law Meets Self-Propelled Swimmers
Does the classic Taylor-Aris dispersion law survive when the particles swim on their own? A microfluidic experiment with live microalgae says yes.
When Particles Synchronize and Swarm — A Tunable Colloidal Swarmalator
A new colloidal experiment lets researchers dial a single knob and switch between synchronized clusters, rotating aggregates, and dispersed phases — the first fully tunable swarmalator system in the lab.
Sensory Delay as a Feature: Janus Microswimmers That Adapt to Light and Chemistry
New Janus microswimmers self-regulate propulsion speed in response to light and dissolved chemicals. A built-in sensory delay makes their localization sharper, not slower.
