Die wundervolle Welt aktiver Vielteilchensysteme: Autos, Fußgänger, Vögel oder andere „motorisierte”︁ Teilchen lassen sich durch relativ einfache Verallgemeinerungen der Newtonschen Gleichungen beschreiben

Warum werden Autofahrer oft von „Staus aus dem Nichts” zum Anhalten gezwungen, obwohl jeder schnell vorankommen mochte? Wieso entstehen die meisten Staus, bevor die Strasenkapazitat erreicht ist? Konnen Geschwindigkeitsbegrenzungen den Verkehr beschleunigen? Weshalb organisieren sich entgegengesetzt laufende Fusganger in Bahnen? Wieso produzieren Fusganger in Paniksituationen gefahrliche Blockadezustande? Wie organisieren sich Vogelschwarme, und was haben sie mit Spin-Systemen gemeinsam? Gibt es Gemeinsamkeiten zwischen der Dynamik von Verkehr und Aktienmarkten? Das alles sind Probleme, die man dank neuer Einsichten in die Dynamik von aktiven Vielteilchensystemen besser verstehen kann.
