  abstract     = {We report on an experimental active matter system with motion restricted to four cardinal directions. Our particles are magnetite-doped colloidal spheres driven by the Quincke electrorotational instability. The absence of a magnetic field (|𝑩|=0) leads to circular trajectories interspersed with short spontaneous runs. Intermediate fields (|𝑩|≲20mT) linearize the motion along the axis perpendicular to 𝑩. At high magnetic fields, we observe the surprising emergence of a second, distinct linearization along the axis parallel to 𝑩. With numerical simulations, we show that this behavior can be explained by anisotropic magnetic susceptibility.},

@article{18606,
  abstract     = {Shear thickening is an intriguing rheological behaviour which consists in a brutal increase in the viscosity above a critical shear rate. It is famously encountered in suspensions of corn starch in water. Despite having been discovered in the early 1930's, its underlying mechanisms remained a mystery for a long time. In 2013–14, numerical and theoretical works [[1], [2], [3]] put forward a frictional transition scenario to explain this phenomenon.
In this talk, I will present experimental work investigating this frictional transition scenario. In order to test the ideas of this model, one has to go further than standard rheological techniques, since they do not provide access to the frictional state of the measured suspension. I will thus focus on the techniques that we developed in order to evidence the frictional transition and link it to the presence of a shear-thickening behaviour.},
