<< Biological organisms and artificial active particles self-organize into swarms and patterns >>
AA << study a mixture of minimalistic clockwise and counter-clockwise rotating robots, called rotors >>
<< experiments show that rotors move collectively and exhibit super-diffusive interfacial motion and phase separate via spinodal decomposition. On long time scales, confinement favors symmetric demixing patterns >>
This << macroscopic system is a form of active soft matter >>
