Order-disorder transition in 3D cell aggregates.
A Shape parameter q for “thermalized” aggregates versus active noise σ. B Distribution of edge lengths in thermalized aggregates for σ = 0.025, 0.2, and 0.5 (red, green, and blue curves, respectively). C Order parameter 1 − f14 and normalized number of cell-rearrangement events n = (NET + NTE)/Nmax versus active noise σ. D-H Thermalized aggreages at σ = 0, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5. I Order parameter 1 − f14 versus time for σ = 0.01, 0.17 and 0.4 (red, green, and blue curves, respectively) during aggregate ordering. J The initial (t = 0.001; orange curve) and final (t = 1000; magenta curve) distributions of edge lengths at σ = 0.17. K Shape parameter q versus time for σ = 0.01, 0.17 and 0.4 (red, green, and blue curves, respectively) during aggregate ordering.
