受驱动的活性物质:涨落和流体动力学不稳定性

Driven active matter: fluctuations and a hydrodynamic instability

T. R. Kirkpatrick, J. K. Bhattacherjee

摘要:

湿活性物质在施加的温度梯度,或化学电势梯度的存在下,被认为是。结果表明,有一种新的类型的对流不稳定,是由一个(负)活动参数。物理上,这对应于具有收缩应力的活性流体。在这种非平衡稳态奇异通用长程相关计算和被动流体中的类似结果进行了比较。此外,还确定了奇异非等自由Casimir压力或力。通过将被动流体中Rayleigh-Benard不稳定性的Lorenz方程推广到描述这种新的不稳定性的Lorenz方程来确定不稳定性上方的流体运动。

英文摘要:

Wet active matter in the presence of an imposed temperature gradient, or chemical potential gradient, is considered. It is shown that there is a new type of convective instability that is caused by a (negative) activity parameter. Physically this corresponds to active fluids with contractual stress. In this non-equilibrium steady state the singular generic long-ranged correlations are computed and compared with the analogous results in a passive fluid. In addition, the singular non-equlibirum Casimir pressure or force is determined. The fluid motion above the instability is determined by generalizing the Lorenz equations for the Rayleigh-Benard instability in a passive fluid to Lorenz-like equations to describe this new instability.
