Time-dependent properties of interacting active matter: Dynamical behavior of one-dimensional systems of self-propelled particles
Lorenzo Caprini, Umberto Marini Bettolo Marconi
Abstract
This paper studies the dynamical properties of a one-dimensional active matter system at high density, and observe the spontaneous alignment of the particles' velocities giving rise to ordered velocity domains.
