Observational analysis reveals the interplay of positional and orientational order in active crystals, suggesting new phase behaviors.
Via mechanisms not accessible at equilibrium, self-propelled particles can form phases with positional order, such as crystals, and with orientational order, such as polar flocks. However, the interplay between these...
