Calculated and observed motions of agitated particles. Snapshots of calculated particles excited in a, c case A (without magnetic interactions) and b, d case B (with magnetic interactions) are taken at the end of rounds of magnetic excitations (one magnetic excitation: 20 ms on and 80 ms off) for 10 s in low g. The particles are displayed in a, b 2D and c, d 3D. Spatial distributions of the particle densities, accumulated in the x direction, are shown in e case A and f case B. g A snapshot of experimentally agitated particles in low g is shown with green line contours for outlining the particles.
