Intermittency, fluctuations and maximal chaos in an emergent universal state of active turbulence

Siddhartha Mukherjee, Rahul K. Singh, Martin James +1

A hydrodynamic model of active, low Reynolds number suspensions, shows the emergence of an asymptotic state with a universal spectral scaling and non-Gaussian (intermittent) fluctu…

Anomalous diffusion and Lévy walks distinguish active from inertial turbulence

Siddhartha Mukherjee, Rahul K. Singh, Martin James +1

Bacterial swarms display intriguing dynamical states like active turbulence. Using a hydrodynamic model we now show that such dense active suspensions manifest super-diffusion, via…

Emergence and melting of active vortex crystals

Martin James, Dominik Anton Suchla, Jörn Dunkel +1

Melting of two-dimensional (2D) equilibrium crystals, from superconducting vortex lattices to colloidal structures, is a complex phenomenon characterized by the sequential loss of…

Turbulence and turbulent pattern formation in a minimal model for active fluids

Martin James, Wouter J. T. Bos, Michael Wilczek

Active matter systems display a fascinating range of dynamical states, including stationary patterns and turbulent phases. While the former can be tackled with methods from the fie…

Vortex dynamics and Lagrangian statistics in a model for active turbulence

Martin James, Michael Wilczek

Cellular suspensions such as dense bacterial flows exhibit a turbulence-like phase under certain conditions. We study this phenomenon of "active turbulence" statistically by using…

How Violent are the Collisions of Different Sized Droplets in a Turbulent Flow?

Martin James, Samriddhi Sankar Ray

We study the typical collisional velocities in a polydisperse suspension of droplets in two and three-dimensional turbulent flow and obtain precise theoretical estimates of the dep…
