Origin of Polar Order in Dense Suspensions of Phototactic Micro-Swimmers

A main question for the study of collective motion in living organisms is the origin of orientational polar order, i.e., how organisms align and what are the benefits of such collective behaviour. In the case of micro-organisms swimming at a low Reynolds number, steric repulsion and long-range hydro...
