Biased motility-induced phase separation: from chemotaxis to traffic jams

Biased motility-induced phase separation: from chemotaxis to traffic jams

Abstract We propose a one-dimensional model of active particles interpolating between quorum sensing models used in the study of motility-induced phase separation (MIPS) and models of congestion of traffic flow on a single-lane highway. Particles have a target velocity with a density-dependent magnitude and a direction that flips with a …
