Spontaneous rotation of active droplets in two and three dimensions
<p>We use numerical simulations and linear stability analysis to study active nematic droplets in the regime where the passive phase is isotropic. We show that activity leads to the emergence of nematic order and of spontaneous rotation in both two and three dimensions. In two dimensions the r...
