Figure 4

Activation of cell agents by an exogenous signal. In this experiment, a non-diffusing and non-decaying signal S was provided in the form of an irregular trail. The cellular agents were of the SN type that are unable to produce the signal but can respond to it. Note that swarming occurs only along the signal trail. (screenshots taken at different times t, t expressed in arbitrary units).
