Tuning active emulsion dynamics via surfactants and topology

. We study water-in-oil emulsion droplets, running the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction, that form a new type of synthetic active matter unit. These droplets, stabilised by surfactants dispersed in the oil medium, are capable of internal chemical oscillations and self-propulsion. Here we present studie...
