Explore phase transitions in active matter through this 30-minute conference talk delivered by Ronald Dickman from UFMG, Brazil. Gain insights into the fascinating world of soft matter physics as part of the Brazilian Workshop on Soft Matter held at ICTP-SAIFR from October 4-6, 2023. Delve into the complex behaviors and emergent phenomena exhibited by active matter systems, which are composed of self-propelled particles that consume energy to generate motion. Examine the various types of phase transitions that occur in these non-equilibrium systems, including motility-induced phase separation, collective motion, and pattern formation. Learn about the theoretical frameworks and experimental techniques used to study these transitions, and discover their relevance to biological systems and potential applications in materials science and nanotechnology.
