This research explores the phenomenon of flocking, where groups of animals move collectively without a leader. It aims to understand how these groups respond to disturbances, focusing on the mechanisms of information sharing and the dynamics of collective behavior in various species.
Flocking, the collective motion displayed by large groups of birds in the absence of a leader, is one of the most spectacular examples of emergent collective behavior in nature.
Flocking is not only restricted to birds but can be observed in an extremely wide range of active matter systems – systems composed by “active particles” able to extract and dissipate energy from their surroundings to produce coherent motion -- as diverse as fish schools, vertebrate herds, bacteria colonies, insect swarm…
