Bulk and microphase separation in chiral active systems
Sumeja Bureković, S. J. Kole, Ananyo Maitra +1
Many active particles phase-separate due to quorum-sensing interactions, and their self-propulsion mechanisms often break chiral symmetry. Using particle and continuum models, we u…
Nucleation and time-reversal symmetry breaking in nonconserved scalar field theories
Noah Ziethen, Michalis Chatzittofi, Michael E. Cates +1
Classical nucleation theory (CNT) describes the formation of a stable phase from a metastable one in terms of a single reaction coordinate that corresponds to the radius of a nucle…
Nonequilibrium nucleation theory for nonconserved fields: from active matter to population dynamics
Michalis Chatzittofi, Noah Ziethen, Cesare Nardini +1
Classical nucleation theory (CNT) describes the formation of a stable phase from a metastable one. In equilibrium systems, it quantifies the free-energy competition between a favor…
Generic nonlocal statistics of the stationary measure in conserved active systems
Filippo De Luca, Michael E. Cates, Cesare Nardini
The stationary measure of equilibrium systems with detailed balance follows a Boltzmann distribution, so that for short-ranged interactions the measure is local, meaning that dista…
Active Cahn-Hilliard theory for nonequilibrium phase separation: quantitative macroscopic predictions and a microscopic derivation
Sumeja Bureković, Filippo De Luca, Michael E. Cates +1
Phase-separating active systems can display phenomenology that is impossible in equilibrium. The binodal densities are not solely determined by a bulk (effective) free energy, but…
Random organization criticality with long-range hydrodynamic interactions
Tristan Jocteur, Cesare Nardini, Eric Bertin +1
Driven soft athermal systems may display a reversible-irreversible transition between an absorbing, arrested state and an active phase where a steady-state dynamics sets in. A para…
