Effective temperatures in inhomogeneous passive and active bidimensional Brownian particle systems

I Petrelli, LF Cugliandolo, G Gonnella, A Suma - Physical Review E, 2020 - APS
We study the stationary dynamics of an active interacting Brownian particle system. We
measure the violations of the fluctuation dissipation theorem, and the corresponding …

Inertial self-propelled particles in anisotropic environments

AR Sprenger, C Scholz, A Ldov, R Wittkowski… - Communications …, 2023 - nature.com
Self-propelled particles in anisotropic environments can exhibit a motility that depends on
their orientation. This dependence is relevant for a plethora of living organisms but difficult to …

Self-Aligning Polar Active Matter

P Baconnier, O Dauchot, V Démery, G Düring… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2024 - arxiv.org
Self-alignment describes the property of a polar active unit to align or anti-align its
orientation towards its velocity. In contrast to mutual alignment, where the headings of …

Cooperative dynamics in two-component out-of-equilibrium systems: molecular 'spinning tops'

VS Dotsenko, P Viot, A Imparato… - Journal of Statistical …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
We study the two-dimensional Langevin dynamics of a mixture of two types of particles that
live respectively at two different temperatures. Dynamics is constrained by an optical trap …

Chirality transitions in a system of active flat spinners

MA López-Castaño, A Márquez Seco… - Physical Review …, 2022 - APS
We study in this work the two-dimensional dynamics of an experimental system of disk-
shaped rotors, fluidized by turbulent upflow. Contrary to previous knowledge, our …

Hohenberg-mermin-wagner-type theorems for equilibrium models of flocking

H Tasaki - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
We study a class of two-dimensional models of classical hard-core particles with Vicsek type
“exchange interaction” that aligns the directions of motion of nearby particles. By extending …

Heterogeneous individual motility biases group composition in a model of aggregating cells

M Forget, S Adiba, LG Brunnet… - Frontiers in Ecology and …, 2022 - frontiersin.org
Aggregative life cycles are characterized by alternating phases of unicellular growth and
multicellular development. Their multiple, independent evolutionary emergence suggests …

Origin of long-range order in a two-dimensional nonequilibrium system under laminar flows

Y Minami, H Nakano - arXiv preprint arXiv:2212.06390, 2022 - arxiv.org
We study long-range order in two dimensions where an order parameter is advected by
linear laminar flows. The linear laminar flows include three classes: rotational, shear, and …

Thermostatting of active Hamiltonian systems via symplectic algorithms

A Bhattacharya, J Horbach, S Karmakar - arXiv preprint arXiv:2409.14864, 2024 - arxiv.org
We consider a class of non-standard, two-dimensional (2D) Hamiltonian models that may
show features of active particle dynamics, and therefore, we refer to these models as active …

Boundary-induced classical Generalized Gibbs Ensemble with angular momentum

F Caravelli, MD Vuffray - arXiv preprint arXiv:2407.08833, 2024 - arxiv.org
We investigate the impact of the boundary shape on the thermalization behavior of a
confined system of classical hard disks at low packing fraction and thus in the gas regime …
