Sedimentation of self-propelled Janus colloids: polarization and pressure
We study experimentally—using Janus colloids—and theoretically—using Active Brownian Particles—the sedimentation of dilute active colloids. We first confirm the existence of an exponential density profile. We show experimentally the emergence of a polarized steady state outside the effective equilib...
