Model of Droplet Dynamics in the Argentine Ant Linepithema Humile(Mayr)

The formation of droplets of ants Linepithema humile(Mayr) is observed under certain experimental conditions: a fluctuating aggregate forms at the end of a rod and a droplet containing up to 40 ants eventually falls down. When the flux of incoming ants is sufficient, this process can continue for se...
