Modeling suspensions of swarming bacteria with wet Vicsek models

Hugues Chaté
SPEC, CEA - Saclay & Beijing CSRC, China

After a brief introduction to active matter and some remarks about the development of the field, I will first focus on aligning dry active matter, and in particular on Vicsek-style models, the emblematic models in this class.

In a second part, I will show that wet Vicsek-style models can account for striking recent experimental results obtained on bacterial active nematics.
