Controlling active matter: the need for thermodynamic consistency
Department of Physics and Materials Science, University of Luxembourg, L-1511 Luxembourg, Luxembourg
An outstanding challenge is to provide a comprehensive framework predicting how to control the collective states of active systems, and how to optimally switch between such states. This agenda requires extending the tools of equilibrium thermodynamics to properly capture and account for the nonequilibrium properties of active matter.
