Active turbulence defined as 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 characterised through a non-equilibrium phase transition, providing a framework for when chaotic flows in active matter become fully turbulent. The finding connects active turbulence research with phase transition physics, a step researchers say could help model systems from bacterial suspensions to fluid dynamics.

Why now: New physics research in Nature linking active turbulence to phase transitions is drawing attention from the scientific community.
