Fig. 6 — (A to D) Snapshots of a spinner lattice demonstrating the self-healing process: (A) A spinner lattice at f_H = 90 Hz, ρ = 0.0112 σ⁻², (B) the moment of the lattice rapture by a 3-mm bead, (C) the lattice is locally fractured by the bead, and (D) spontaneously self-repaired lattice. Scale bar, 5 mm. (E) The time evolution of the mean bond orientational order parameter ψ₆ in the fractured region of the spinner lattice.
