Estimation of the critical behavior in an active colloidal system with Vicsek-like interactions

Abstract: We study numerically the critical behavior of a modified, active Asakura-Oosawa model for colloid-polymer mixtures. The colloids are modeled as self-propelled particles with Vicsek-like interactions. This system undergoes phase separation between a colloid-rich and a polymer-rich phase, whereby the phase diagram depends on the strength of the Vicsek-like interactions. Employing a subsystem-block-density distribution analysis, we determine the critical point and make an attempt to estimate the critical exponent… Show more

“…Interestingly, the critical point in ABPs does not lie on the linear extension of the rectilinear diameter, which is shown as red circles. While this is rather uncommon in equilibrium systems, a similar behavior has been found for other non-equilibrium transitions as well [34,35].…”

“…Especially in three dimensional off-lattice systems this approach has proven to be very successful [26]. Even though it only works for a rather small range of intermediate subbox sizes it provides accurate results in equilibrium [26] as well as nonequilibrium systems [34]. Nonetheless, there are severe draw-backs especially in two dimensions.…”

“…Eventually, the presented sub‐system analysis combined with the two‐parameter scaling should also be applicable to the more challenging study of asymmetric, for example, colloid–polymer mixtures. [ 19,64,65 ] Apart from specific applications to fluids and taking advantage of universality, Monte Carlo simulations of large 3D Ising lattices should provide a highly sensitive test of the extended finite‐size scaling of Ufalse(T;Lfalse) (Equations (31) and (32)) and a more precise estimate of Uc.…”

“…This old idea was carried out successfully for 2D and 3D Ising lattice models, [14,15] but its application to 2D Lennard-Jones (LJ) fluids was limited by the computing resources available 30 years ago and suffered from the insufficient separation of the two length scales. [16][17][18] The approach was revived only recently to determine critical points in the phase diagrams of 3D active suspensions [19,20] ; in these studies, additional countermeasures were needed to avoid biased sampling by sub-volumes that contained an interface.…”

“…En su trabajo [Trefz et al, 2017], Trefz y colaboradores estudian un sistema de partículas propulsadas con una interacción orientacional. El sistema presenta una separación de fase, entre una fase rica en coloides y otra rica en polímeros, donde el diagrama de fase depende fuertemente de las interacciones orientacionales.…”
