具有可变相互作用角范围的自推进粒子模型中的一级相变

First order phase transition in a self-propelled particles model with variable angular range of interaction

Mihir Durve, Ahmed Sayeed

摘要:

本文对Vicsek模型的一个改进版本进行了二维自推进粒子运动的蒙特卡罗模拟。在这个模型中,粒子相互作用的邻域是以粒子为中心的圆的一个扇区(而不是原始Vicsek模型中的整个圆)。该扇区沿粒子速度方向居中,该扇区的半张角称为“视角”。我们在整个范围内改变视角,研究粒子集体运动性质的变化。我们发现,有序的集体运动持续到非常小的视角。在一定的临界视角下,系统的集体运动经历了一级相变到无序态。我们还发现,在视角的减少,实际上可以增加系统中的顺序显着。我们表明,相互作用的方向性,而不仅仅是相互作用的径向范围,起着重要的作用,在确定上述相变的性质。

英文摘要:

We have carried out a Monte Carlo simulation of a modified version of Vicsek model for the motion of self-propelled particles in two dimensions. In this model the neighborhood of interaction of a particle is a sector of the circle with the particle at the center (rather than the whole circle as in the original Vicsek model). The sector is centered along the direction of the velocity of the particle, and the half-opening angle of this sector is called the `view-angle'. We vary the view-angle over its entire range and study the change in the nature of the collective motion of the particles. We find that ordered collective motion persists down to remarkably small view-angles. And at a certain critical view-angle the collective motion of the system undergoes a first order phase transition to a disordered state. We also find that the reduction in the view-angle can in fact increase the order in the system significantly. We show that the directionality of the interaction, and not only the radial range of the interaction, plays an important role in the determination of the nature of the above phase transition.
