Fluctuations and Rheology in Active Bacterial Suspensions
D. T. N. Chen, A. W. C. Lau, L. A. Hough +4
We probe non-equilibrium properties of an active bacterial bath through measurements of correlations of passive tracer particles and the response function of a driven, optically tr…

Dynamics of bacterial flow: Emergence of spatiotemporal coherent structures
Nicholas Sambelashvili, A. W. C. Lau, David Cai
We propose a simple model of self-propelled particles to show that coherent structures, such as jets and swirls, can arise from a plausible microscopic mechanisms: (i) the elongate…

State-dependent diffusion: thermodynamic consistency and its path integral formulation
A. W. C. Lau, T. C. Lubensky
The friction coefficient of a particle can depend on its position as it does when the particle is near a wall. We formulate the dynamics of particles with such state-dependent fric…
