Enhanced diffusion and ordering of self-propelled rods
Aparna Baskaran, M. Cristina Marchetti
Starting from a minimal physical model of self propelled hard rods on a substrate in two dimensions, we derive a modified Smoluchowski equation for the system. Self -propulsion enh…

Hydrodynamics of self-propelled hard rods
Aparna Baskaran, M. Cristina Marchetti
Motivated by recent simulations and by experiments on aggregation of gliding bacteria, we study a model of the collective dynamics of self-propelled hard rods on a substrate in two…

Organization and instabilities of entangled active polar filaments
Tanniemola B. Liverpool, M. Cristina Marchetti
We study the dynamics of an entangled, isotropic solution of polar filaments coupled by molecular motors which generate relative motion of the filaments in two and three dimensions…
