Activity induced synchronization: Mutual flocking and chiral self-sorting

Synchronization, the temporal coordination of coupled oscillators, allows fireflies to flash in unison, neurons to fire collectively, and human crowds to fall in step on the London millenium bridge. Here, we interpret active (or self-propelled) chiral microswimmers with a distribution of intrinsic f...
