How Far from Equilibrium Is Active Matter ?
AbstractActive matter systems are driven out of thermal equilibrium by a lack of generalized Stokes-Einstein relation between injection and dissipation of energy at the microscopic scale. We consider such a system of interacting particles, propelled
The Search for Dark Matter at Boulby Mine
Dr Chamkaur Ghag of the School's Nuclear Physics Group will give the Cleveland Institution of Engineers' March lecture. Talk summary: Astronomers are now convinced there is much more out in space than meets the eye. As well as the stars & galaxies
Workshop: Topological quantum matter - Higgs Centre for Theoretical Physics
Workshop: The role of topology in condensed matter physics was first recognised several decades ago in the context of the Integer Quantum Hall Effect and in...
Deep Talks: An International Journey to Dark Matter Detection
Dark Matter Day Scientists and members of the public are invited to attend events to mark Dark Matter Day, which celebrates the work being carried out in laboratories and institutions around the world, and shares what scientists know about this

18 October 2024. Prize funds will be used to carry out research in topological problems in soft matter physics. ... 27 August 2024. Detector explores weaker dark matter interactions than ever searched for before.
Computational rheology of active matter
Active matter systems are comprised of active particles that dissipate energy into their surroundings. This can lead to, for example, self-motility, growth or replication of the particles. Examples of active matter include suspensions of swimming

31 October 2013. Scientists at Edinburgh have helped create the most sensitive dark matter detector in the world, new results show. ... 26 April 2013. The LHCb experiment has observed a matter -antimatter difference in the neutral Bs meson system,
The Mechanics and Statistics of Active Matter
Active systems contain components which are capable of taking up energy from their surroundings and turning it into motion. Examples include molecular motors plus filaments plus ATP; cell-membranes laden with pumps or actin-polymerization sites,
Possible Solution of the Dark Matter Problem
Searches for dark matter (DM) constituents are presently mainly focused on axions and WIMPs despite the fact that far higher mass constituents are viable. We discuss and dispute whether axions exist and those arguments for WIMPs which arise from
