Hyper-Ballistic Superdiffusion of Competing Microswimmers

Entropy
Hyper-ballistic diffusion is shown to arise from a simple model of microswimmers moving through a porous media while competing for resources. By using a mean-field model where swimmers interact through the local concentration, we show that a non-linear Fokker–Planck equation arises.

Alignment-induced self-organization of autonomously steering microswimmers: Turbulence, clusters, vortices, and jets

Physical Review Research
Microorganisms can sense their environment and adapt their movement accordingly, which gives rise to a multitude of collective phenomena, including active turbulence and bioconvection.
