Acoustic trapping of active matter
Active matter, such as swimming bacteria, show unique behaviors under confinement, but it is experimentally challenging to measure them. Takatoriet al. show the use of acoustic tweezers to trap self-propelled Janus particles as an enabling tool to investigate collective motions in living systems.
