Activity-induced clustering in model dumbbell swimmers: The role of hydrodynamic interactions
Akira Furukawa, Davide Marenduzzo, Michael E Cates
Using a fluid-particle dynamics approach, we numerically study the effects of hydrodynamic interactions on the collective dynamics of active suspensions within a simple model for b…
Activity-induced phase separation and self-assembly in mixtures of active and passive particles
Joakim Stenhammar, Raphael Wittkowski, Davide Marenduzzo +1
We investigate the phase behavior and kinetics of a monodisperse mixture of active (\textit{i.e.}, self-propelled) and passive isometric Brownian particles through Brownian dynamic…
Filling an emulsion drop with motile bacteria
I. D. Vladescu, E. J. Marsden, J. Schwarz-Linek +6
We have measured the spatial distribution of motile Escherichia coli inside spherical water droplets emulsified in oil. At low cell concentrations, the cell density peaks at the wa…
Motility-Induced Phase Separation
Michael E. Cates, Julien Tailleur
Self-propelled particles include both self-phoretic synthetic colloids and various micro-organisms. By continually consuming energy, they bypass the laws of equilibrium thermodynam…
Avalanches mediate crystallization in a hard-sphere glass
Eduardo Sanz, Chantal Valeriani, Emanuela Zaccarelli +3
By molecular-dynamics simulations, we have studied the devitrification (or crystallization) of aged hard-sphere glasses. First, we find that the dynamics of the particles are inter…
