Diversity of self-propulsion speeds reduces motility-induced clustering in confined active matter

Soft Matter, 2021, Accepted Manuscript DOI: 10.1039/D1SM01009C, PaperPablo de Castro, Francisco M. Rocha, Saulo Diles, Rodrigo Soto, Peter Sollich Self-propelled swimmers such as bacteria agglomerate into clusters as a result of their persistent motion. In 1D, those clusters do not coalesce macroscopically and the stationary cluster size distribution (CSD)... The content of this RSS Feed (c) The Royal Society of Chemistry
