Curvature-dependent tension and tangential flows at the interface of motility-induced phases
Adam Patch, Daniel Sussman, David Yllanes +1
Purely repulsive active particles spontaneously undergo motility-induced phase separation (MIPS) into condensed and dilute phases. Remarkably, the mechanical tension measured along…
A self-driven phase transition drives Myxococcus xanthus fruiting body formation
Guannan Liu, Adam Patch, Fatmagul Bahar +5
Combining high-resolution single cell tracking experiments with numerical simulations, we show that starvation-induced fruiting body (FB) formation in Myxococcus xanthus is a phase…
Kinetics of motility-induced phase separation and swim pressure
Adam Patch, David Yllanes, M. Cristina Marchetti
Active Brownian particles (ABPs) represent a minimal model of active matter consisting of self-propelled spheres with purely repulsive interactions and rotational noise. Here, we e…
Minimal model of active colloids highlights the role of mechanical interactions in controlling the emergent behavior of active matter
M. Cristina Marchetti, Yaouen Fily, Silke Henkes +2
Minimal models of active Brownian colloids consisting of self-propelled spherical particles with purely repulsive interactions have recently been identified as excellent quantitati…
