Scientists from our Department 'Living Matter Physics' developed a new model on organization of matter: non-reciprocal interactions play an important role in creating structures on a higher level - and eventually in the formation of life. @LivMatPhys

Ein Lichtblick 💡 für das Verständnis von Selbstorganisation: Cyanobakterien sind im Kollektiv in der Lage, komplexe Strukturen zu bilden, obwohl sich ein einzelnes Filament nur vorwärts und rückwärs bewegen kann. 🦠🧫 @Cbehav @UniKonstanz

Hot off the press: In a collaboration between Stefan Karpitschka's group and several people from @LivMatPhys, we show how filament motility, reversals at illumination boundaries and filament interactions work together to create emergent structures. @Lei_La_ @RGolestanian @mpids
Kurjahn et al. show that filamentous #cyanobacteria use light gradients and boundary curvature of light stimuli to form to form ordered, entangled #aggregates, revealing how these dynamics could influence adaptive colony architectures #microorganisms nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

New paper w/ @MikeChatzittofi @RGolestanian! When the precision of a molecular machine is too good to be true, it could be that there is not a single machine but a whole team behind it. Stochastic thermodynamics helps us infer how big the team is, and how strongly it cooperates.

Living Matter Physics at the foot of Zugspitze: Great science and great hikes at this year’s @LivMatPhys retreat. Many thanks to everyone who contributed and special thanks to @ufs_forschung for the very interesting tour!

Microscale swimming gains attention for bio-medical applications. Using a three-sphere model, we study the effect of axisymmetric confinement on low Reynolds number swimming via theory and simulations @LivMatPhys @mpids @SantaClaraUniv @DEMIR_Lab @LehighU aippub.org/3XkBcXw

Applied mechanical forces can reduce the energy barrier in the reaction free energy. This and many other results in our nonlinear response theory of molecular machines with @RGolestanian and @AgudoCanalejo @LivMatPhys @mpids @ucl. Just Published in EPL.

Chemical activity, chemotaxis & steric repulsion work together to create complex dynamics in clusters of colloids/enzymes. @krprathyusha, @SahaSuropriya & @RGolestanian from @LivMatPhys analyze fluctuations & glassy behavior in this new paper. @PhysRevLett doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.…
… always great to see majority women-authored papers in (especially theoretical) physics. Hopefully LMP @LivMatPhys will contribute more in the future. #womeninSTEM

Being stuck in a local energy minimum 🪫 - this is a common problem on molecular scale organization. Scientists around @RGolestanian now proposed a mechanism to escape these traps and to overcome the energy barrier. ↗️🚧 @LivMatPhys

Happy 99th birthday to @mpids. Next year, on 16th July 2025, we will celebrate its 100th anniversary and a long legacy in dynamics and self-organization that started with fluid dynamics and turbulence and branched out to other fields encompassing physics, chemistry, and biology.
🥳Happy Birthday! 🎉
Today our institute turns 99 years old. We can look back on a long history at the institute. Likewise, we are looking forward to the year 2025 and our upcoming 100th anniversary with great anticipation. @maxplanckpress #MPIDS #Göttingen #99years

Non-reciprocal active-matter: a tale of “loving hate, brawling love” across the scales

Great work led by our PhD student @YihongShi_ co-supervised by @AndrejVilfan @LivMatPhys @mpids. She discovered new strategies to mix particles efficiently in viscous suspensions using information theoretical techniques.
