Turbulent-like flows in quasi two-dimensional dense suspensions of motile colloids

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: at high wavenumbers, observed consistently across activity levels and particle concentrations. We observe that velocity time correlations decay within a single period of the square-wave field, yet an anti-correlation appears between successive field applications, indicative of a dynamic structural memory of the ensemble.
