Critical behavior of quorum-sensing active particles
arXiv:2205.09047 · doi:10.1039/D2SM00654E
Abstract
It is still a debated issue whether all critical active particles belong to the same universality class. Here we numerically study the critical behavior of quorum sensing active particles that represents the archetypal model for interpreting motility-induced phase separation. Mean-field theory predicts that this model should undergo a full phase separation if particles slow-down enough when sensing the presence of their neighbours and that the coexistence line terminates in a critical point. By performing large-scale numerical simulations we confirm this scenario, locate the critical point and use finite-size scaling analysis to show that the static and dynamic critical exponents of this active system agree with the Ising universality class
