Pair correlation of dilute Active Brownian Particles: from low activity dipolar correction to high activity algebraic depletion wings
Résumé
We study the pair correlation of Active Brownian Particles at low density using numerical simula-tions and analytical calculations. We observe a winged pair correlation: while particles accumulatein front of an active particle as expected, the depletion wake consists of two depletion wings. In thelimit of soft particles, we obtain a closed equation for the pair correlation, allowing us to characterizethe depletion wings. In particular, we unveil two regimes at high activity where the wings adopta self-similar profile and decay algebraically. We also perform experiments of self-propelled Janusparticles and indeed observe the depletion wings.
