A kinetic model and scaling properties of non-equilibrium clustering of self-propelled particles
We demonstrate that the clustering statistics and the corresponding phase transition to non-equilibrium clustering found in many experiments and simulation studies with self-propelled particles (SPPs) with alignment can be obtained by a simple kinetic model. The key elements of this approach are the...
