Correlation between particle motion and Voronoi-cell-shape fluctuations during the compaction of granular matter

We track particle motions in a granular material subjected to compaction using a laser scattering-based imaging method where compaction is achieved through thermal cycling. Particle displacements in this jammed fluid correlate strongly with rearrangements of the Voronoi cells defining the local envi...
