Active emulsions, i.e., emulsions whose droplets perform self-propelled motion, are of tremendous interest for mimicking collective phenomena in biological populations such as phytoplankton and bacterial colonies, but also for experimentally studying rheology, pattern formation, and phase transitions in systems far from thermal equilibrium.

Dissipative patterns with solid-phase transitions are ubiquitous in nature. Despite their ubiquitous nature, there is no unified understanding of the non-equilibrium self-assembly mechanisms of such pattern formation. The Liesegang pattern...
