Self-organization of active particles by quorum sensing rules

Self-organization of active particles by quorum sensing rules

Bacteria communicate and organize via quorum sensing which is determined by biochemical processes. Here the authors aim to reproduce this behaviour in a system of synthetic active particles whose motion is induced by an external beam which is in turn controlled by a feedback-loop which mimics quorum...
