BP 14: Focus Session: From Inter-individual Variability to Heterogeneous Group Dynamics and Disorder in Active Matter (joint session DY/BP/CPP)

Mittwoch, 29. März 2023, 09:30–13:00, ZEU 160

The study of active particle dynamics has developed into a vibrant field of multidisciplinary research, including such diverse systems as bacterial colonies, cellular self-organization, synthetic colloids and microrobots as well as macroscopic systems like locusts, flocks of birds, schools of fish or pedestrians. Whereas many studies in the past focused either on the random transport of individual particles or on the interplay of temporal fluctuations (noise) and interactions (velocity alignment or attraction/repulsion), there is now an increasing interest in the question how structural disorder and inter-individual variability, i.e., different motility characteristics of individuals, shape the active particle dynamics and emergent pattern formation of groups. The presence of structural or quenched disorder raises furthermore the immediate question how to bridge data and models based on (short time) tracking data, given the simultaneous presence of temporal fluctuations. With this focus session, we aim at bringing researchers from statistical physics and biophysics together to discuss this interdisciplinary topic and exchange ideas on common challenges arising in different application areas.
