Transport of topological defects in a biphasic mixture of active and passive nematic fluids

Abstract Collectively moving cellular systems often contain a proportion of dead cells or non-motile genotypes. When mixed, nematically aligning motile and non-motile agents are known to segregate spontaneously. However, the role that topological defects and active stresses play in shaping the distr...
