Chirality-induced directional rotation of a symmetric gear in a bath of chiral active particles
We conduct a numerical study exploring the rotation of a symmetric gear driven by chiral particles in a two-dimensional box with periodic boundary conditions. The symmetric gear is submerged in a sea of chiral active particles. Surprisingly, even though the gear is perfectly symmetric, the microscop...
