DESCRIPTION:An increasingly studied class of systems comprise colloidal pa
 rticles that move by self-propulsion rather than Brownian motion. Such dyn
 amics violates time-reversal symmetry at the microscale\, undermining one 
 of the pillars on which equilibrium thermodynamics is built. What remains?
  I will address this question in the specific context of calculating the p
 ressure of a system of active particles\, defined as the force per unit ar
 ea on a confining wall.
