SYBS: Symposium Physics of Biological and Synthetic Active Matter

SYBS 1: Physics of Biological and Synthetic Active Matter

Dienstag, 13. März 2018, 09:30–12:15, H 0105

Active matter is formed by entities with an internal driving mechanism, that consumes energy and keeps the system constantly out of equilibrium. Prominent examples from the living world are motor-driven biopolymer networks and motile microorganisms. Synthetic systems, such as in-vitro motility assays or artificial microswimmers can mimic processes in biological active matter but also help to explore fundamental questions of non-equilibrium systems. This symposium will bring together the communities that work on biological and synthetic active matter to explore similarities and differences in the design principles of active motion, the emergent collective dynamics such as swarming, and the responses to external fields including the paradigmatic case of chemotaxis.
