Abstract
We review recent theoretical and experimental developments in measuring the rheological response of active colloidal systems. Particular attention is dedicated to active and passive microrheological characterization. These techniques are essential to measure active fluctuations and micromechanical heterogeneities present in living and artificial active matter. We also discuss the coupling between viscoelasticity and collective motion in crowded active colloidal suspensions. We conclude this work with a discussion on open challenges.
期刊介绍:
Current Opinion in Colloid and Interface Science (COCIS) is an international journal that focuses on the molecular and nanoscopic aspects of colloidal systems and interfaces in various scientific and technological fields. These include materials science, biologically-relevant systems, energy and environmental technologies, and industrial applications.
Unlike primary journals, COCIS primarily serves as a guide for researchers, helping them navigate through the vast landscape of recently published literature. It critically analyzes the state of the art, identifies bottlenecks and unsolved issues, and proposes future developments.
Moreover, COCIS emphasizes certain areas and papers that are considered particularly interesting and significant by the Editors and Section Editors. Its goal is to provide valuable insights and updates to the research community in these specialized areas.
