Towards a thermodynamics of active particles — •Thomas Speck — Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz

I will give a brief overview on the theoretical modeling of autonomous self-propelled particles with directed motion, which colloquially go by the name ``active particles''. Being driven away from thermal equilibrium, questions like the physical meaning of entropy production arising from breaking time-reversal symmetry and consistency with thermodynamic principles have received increasing attention. I will discuss the situation for active Brownian particles, a minimal model system of active particles combining directed motion with volume exclusion, in the context of stochastic thermodynamics.
