From: Mitigating density fluctuations in particle-based active nematic simulations

Snapshots of the local density field ρC for the four different formulations of cellular activity, with an activity parameter of α = 0.15 in a square periodic domain of size ℓsys = 50. Corresponds to frame 75 of Supplementary Movie 3. ("Part.'', Eq. (6); “Cell'', Eq. (8); “Mod. Part.'', Eq. (12); “Mod. Cell'', Eq. (11)).
