Trapping flocking particles with asymmetric obstacles
Raul Martinez, Francisco Alarcon, Juan Luis Aragones +1
Asymmetric obstacles can be exploited to direct the motion and induce sorting of run-and-tumbling particles. In this work, we show that flocking particles which follow the Vicsek m…
Collective behavior of Vicsek particles without and with obstacles
Raul Martinez, Francisco Alarcon, Diego Rogel Rodriguez +2
In our work we have studied a two-dimensional suspension of finite-size Vicsek hard-disks, whose time evolution follows an event-driven dynamics between subsequent time steps. Havi…
Orientational order and morphology of clusters of self-assembled Janus swimmers
Francisco Alarcon, Eloy Navarro-Argemí, Chantal Valeriani +1
Due to the combined effect of anisotropic interactions and activity, Janus swimmers are capable to self-assemble in a wide variety of structures, many more than their equilibrium c…
