Modeling active colloids: From active brownian particles to hydrodynamic and chemical fields

A Zöttl, H Stark - Annual Review of Condensed Matter Physics, 2023 - annualreviews.org
Active colloids are self-propelled particles moving in viscous fluids by consuming fuel from
their surroundings. Here, we review the numerical and theoretical modeling of active …

Colloquium: Inclusions, boundaries, and disorder in scalar active matter

O Granek, Y Kafri, M Kardar, S Ro, J Tailleur… - Reviews of Modern …, 2024 - APS
Active systems are driven out of equilibrium by exchanging energy and momentum with their
environment. This endows them with anomalous mechanical properties that are reviewed in …

Irreversibility in active matter systems: Fluctuation theorem and mutual information

L Dabelow, S Bo, R Eichhorn - Physical Review X, 2019 - APS
We consider a Brownian particle which, in addition to being in contact with a thermal bath, is
driven by fluctuating forces which stem from active processes in the system, such as self …

From motility-induced phase-separation to glassiness in dense active matter

M Paoluzzi, D Levis, I Pagonabarraga - Communications Physics, 2022 - nature.com
Dense active systems are widespread in nature, examples range from bacterial colonies to
biological tissues. Dense clusters of active particles can be obtained by increasing the …

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 temperature difference in coexisting phases

S Mandal, B Liebchen, H Löwen - Physical review letters, 2019 - APS
Unlike in thermodynamic equilibrium where coexisting phases always have the same
temperature, here we show that systems comprising “active” self-propelled particles can self …

Hidden velocity ordering in dense suspensions of self-propelled disks

L Caprini, UMB Marconi, C Maggi, M Paoluzzi… - Physical Review …, 2020 - APS
Recent investigations of the phase diagram of spherical, purely repulsive, active particles
established the existence of a transition from a liquidlike to a solidlike phase analogous to …

Anomalous transport of tracers in active baths

O Granek, Y Kafri, J Tailleur - Physical Review Letters, 2022 - APS
We derive the long-time dynamics of a tracer immersed in a one-dimensional active bath. In
contrast to previous studies, we find that the dam** and noise correlations possess long …

Active Ornstein–Uhlenbeck model for self-propelled particles with inertia

GHP Nguyen, R Wittmann… - Journal of Physics …, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
Self-propelled particles, which convert energy into mechanical motion, exhibit inertia if they
have a macroscopic size or move inside a gaseous medium, in contrast to micron-sized …

The entropy production of Ornstein–Uhlenbeck active particles: a path integral method for correlations

L Caprini, UMB Marconi, A Puglisi… - Journal of Statistical …, 2019 - iopscience.iop.org
By employing a path integral formulation, we obtain the entropy production rate for a system
of active Ornstein–Uhlenbeck particles (AOUP) both in the presence and in the absence of …
