The realization of active microscale Marangoni surfers
Marangoni surfers are small particles that self-propel while straddling a fluid-fluid interface in a way similar to that in which a surfer moves on the surface of a wave. In recent years, self-propelling particles have become the focus of numerous physics studies, as they could serve as a model to study the motion of active Brownian objects with a broad range of velocities and interactions.
