Flocking without alignment interactions in attractive active brownian particles

L Caprini, H Löwen - Physical Review Letters, 2023 - APS
Within a simple model of attractive active Brownian particles, we predict flocking behavior
and challenge the widespread idea that alignment interactions are necessary to observe this …

Inertial self-propelled particles

L Caprini, U Marini Bettolo Marconi - The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2021 - pubs.aip.org
We study how inertia affects the behavior of self-propelled particles moving through a
viscous solvent by employing the underdamped version of the active Ornstein–Uhlenbeck …

Motility-induced microphase and macrophase separation in a two-dimensional active Brownian particle system

CB Caporusso, P Digregorio, D Levis… - Physical Review Letters, 2020 - APS
As a result of nonequilibrium forces, purely repulsive self-propelled particles undergo
macrophase separation between a dense and a dilute phase. We present a thorough study …

Disordered collective motion in dense assemblies of persistent particles

YE Keta, RL Jack, L Berthier - Physical Review Letters, 2022 - APS
We explore the emergence of nonequilibrium collective motion in disordered nonthermal
active matter when persistent motion and crowding effects compete, using simulations of a …

Phase transitions and phase coexistence: equilibrium systems versus externally driven or active systems-Some perspectives

K Binder, P Virnau - Soft Materials, 2021 - Taylor & Francis
ABSTRACT A tutorial introduction to the statistical mechanics of phase transitions and phase
