AI总结:

本文研究了受限诱导的集体运动现象,通过微通道中不对称边界约束游动- tumble 粒子,发现其形成机制与粒子反向流及空位扩散有关。

摘要:

集体运动在所有长度和时间尺度的活性系统中都很普遍。这种集体运动背后机制通常是由活性粒子之间的对齐相互作用、碰撞后有效的对齐或被动物种在活性悬浮液中引起的对称性破缺波动。在本文中,我们引入了一种新的集体运动形式,其形状为移动带,纯粹由限制引起,其中没有显式或有效的对齐被规定在活性代理之间。我们研究了一种受限在微通道中的游动- tumble 粒子悬浮液,其中微通道包含不对称边界:一个平面壁和一个由类似喷嘴状障碍物组成的阵列。我们研究了在改变颗粒浓度和持久长度时受限活性悬浮液的相行为,以定义移动带的稳定性区域。我们对移动带的结构和动态特性进行了表征,并研究其对障碍物倾斜角的稳定性。最后,我们描述了带的运动机制,其类似于某些重型车辆如拖拉机的跟踪运动,发现带的下部存在反向流的活性粒子,用源-汇和空位扩散机制解释,是移动带的促进因素并维持其运动。我们将这种新的集体现象命名为限制诱导的跟踪运动

英文摘要:

Collective motion is ubiquitous in active systems at all length and time scales. The mechanisms behind such collective motion usually are alignment interactions between active particles, effective alignment after collisions between agents or symmetry-breaking fluctuations induced by passive species in active suspensions. In this article, we introduce a new type of collective motion in the shape of a traveling band induced purely by confinement, where no explicit or effective alignment are prescribed among active agents. We study a suspension of run-and-tumble particles confined in microchannels comprising asymmetric boundaries: one flat wall and one array of funnel-like obstacles. We study the phase behavior of the confined active suspension upon changes in the packing fraction and the persistence length to define the stability region of the traveling band. We characterize the traveling band structurally and dynamically and study its stability with respect to the tilt angle of the obstacles. Lastly, we describe the mechanism of motion of the band, which resembles the tracked locomotion of some heavy vehicles like tractors, finding that a counter-flux of active particles in the lower part of the band, explained in terms of source-sink and vacancy diffusion mechanisms, is the facilitator of the traveling band and sustains its motion. We name this new collective phenomenon confinement-induced tracked locomotion
