Active turbulence defined through non-equilibrium phase transition
Original: Fully developed active turbulence defined through a non-equilibrium phase transition
A study published in Nature reports that fully developed active turbulence can be defined through a non-equilibrium phase transition. The finding gives researchers a clearer framework for understanding chaotic flows generated by active matter, such as bacterial suspensions and cellular layers. Researchers in soft matter and statistical physics are expected to discuss how the phase-transition definition sharpens classification of these turbulent states.
Why now: New Nature research offering a precise physical definition of active turbulence is drawing attention in the physics community.
