Pair dispersion in dilute suspension of active swimmers

Ensembles of biological and artificial microswimmers produce long-range velocity fields with strong nonequilibrium fluctuations, which result in a dramatic increase in diffusivity of embedded particles (tracers). While such enhanced diffusivity may point to enhanced mixing of the fluid, a rigorous q...
