👉New preprint on avalanches in active glasses with finite persistence time. Universal behaviour of avalanches triggered by activity vs. triggered by shear: self-propulsion modulates the size of plastic events. With @ezeferrero.bsky.social #RWiese @demianlevis.bsky.social @ubics.bsky.social

Very excited to see this work out! Mixtures of active colloids, clustering, de-mixing, collective dynamics and all that. Great experiments by @lauraal.bsky.social with Lucio Isa @ethz.ch Elena Sesé and Ignacio Pagonabarraga #activematter #softmatter --> arxiv.org/abs/2506.15188
