Experimental observation of flow fields around active Janus spheres

In order to predict the behaviours of self-propelled particles it is important to understand the fluid disturbances they generate. Here the authors measure the flow-fields around active particles and show that they are in agreement with theoretical predictions which take into account electrokinetic...

Sumario:In order to predict the behaviours of self-propelled particles it is important to understand the fluid disturbances they generate. Here the authors measure the flow-fields around active particles and show that they are in agreement with theoretical predictions which take into account electrokinetic effects.
