The mathematics of active matter
A flock of birds, a shoal of fish, a swarm of robots, a colony of swimming bacteria; these are examples of systems composed of interacting units that consume energy and collectively generate motion and mechanical forces on their environment. Th
Doors Open Day - soft matter research
Take a guided tour of the Institute for Condensed Matter and Complex Systems, and go behind the scenes of soft matter research. Experiment with a variety of hands-on activities for all ages, alongside staff and students. You can even make and take
More Information about dark matter
achieved) through the inclusion of materials known as dark matter and dark energy. ... Whether there is dark matter , and what it might be, are big problems in physics and astronomy.
Magnetic susceptibility of QCD matter
Title: Magnetic susceptibility of QCD matter Abstract: In the cores of magnetars, during neutron star mergers and in heavy ion collisions magnetic fields can be found that are so strong that the properties of strongly interacting matter may be
SuperNEMO and the mystery of matter
Why does the universe exist? Or rather - how did we end up with a universe made of matter , when matter and antimatter are created together? The SuperNEMO experiment is hoping to find some clues to this puzzle, by looking for neutrinoless double-beta

Exploring strongly interacting dark matter
Understanding the laws governing the dark matter dynamics in the Universe is undoubtedly one of the pressing questions inastro-particle physics. While investigations have focused on elementary particles as potential dark matter candidates, an
Dense active matter : topology in biology
Active materials such as bacteria, molecular motors and self-propelled colloids, are Nature’s engines. They continuously transform chemical energy from their environment to mechanical work. Dense active matter shows mesoscale turbulence, the
Delving into dark matter
Dr Xin Ran Liu from the School of Physics and Astronomy joined fellow eminent scientists in Beijing on 31 October to present at the ‘Why The Dark Matters’ event, hosted by the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAM), and jointly organised with the UK
