[2111.06156] Active particles in a tube: a generalized entropy potential approach Skip to main content Search Submit Donate Log in Search arXiv Press Enter to search · Advanced search Condensed Matter > Soft Condensed Matter arXiv:2111.06156 (cond-mat) [Submitted on 11 Nov 2021 ( v1 ), last revised 10 Jun 2024 (this version, v3)] Title: Active particles in a tube: a generalized entropy potential approach Authors: Yongfeng Zhao View a PDF of the paper titled Active particles in a tube: a generalized entropy potential approach, by Yongfeng Zhao View PDF HTML (experimental) Abstract: We study the transport of self-propelled noninteracting active Brownian particles (ABPs) and run-and-tumble particles (RTPs) in long tubes of varying widths. Using a moment expansion, we construct a generalized Fick-Jacobs framework for the active particles when the tube width is large and slowly varying. We show that the variation of the particle density along the tube is well described by a one-dimensional generalized entropy potential. This potential resembles its passive counterpart, albeit with an effective temperature and an effective tube width that are renormalized by the activity. Our generalized entropy potential approach allows us to predict the steady-state density distribution along the tube as well as the mean escape time out of a spindle chamber. Finally, we show how to account for the emergence of spontaneous ratchet flows in asymmetric channel by including higher-order corrections neglected in the effective entropy potential approach.
