Active particles with soft and curved walls: Equation of state, ratchets, and instabilities
Nikolai Nikola, Alexandre P. Solon, Yariv Kafri +3
We study, from first principles, the pressure exerted by an active fluid of spherical particles on general boundaries in two dimensions. We show that, despite the non-uniform press…
Pattern formation in flocking models: A hydrodynamic description
Alexandre P. Solon, Jean-Baptiste Caussin, Denis Bartolo +2
We study in detail the hydrodynamic theories describing the transition to collective motion in polar active matter, exemplified by the Vicsek and active Ising models. Using a simpl…
Flocking with discrete symmetry: the 2d Active Ising Model
A. P. Solon, J. Tailleur
We study in detail the active Ising model, a stochastic lattice gas where collective motion emerges from the spontaneous breaking of a discrete symmetry. On a 2d lattice, active pa…
Active Brownian Particles and Run-and-Tumble Particles: a Comparative Study
A. P. Solon, M. E. Cates, J. Tailleur
Active Brownian particles (ABPs) and Run-and-Tumble particles (RTPs) both self-propel at fixed speed along a body-axis that reorients either through slow angular diff…
