Statistical mechanics of colloids and active matter in and out of equilibrium

<p>Thermal and viscous forces compete for dominance at the microscopic length-scales which govern the behaviour of many soft or biological systems. We study three systems of increasing complexity with the central goal of understanding the statistical or hydrodynamic nature of their mechanics.&...
