Ionic self-phoresis maps onto correlation-induced self-phoresis

preprint2024arXivOpen access

Abstract

We re-examine the self-phoresis of a particle that releases(removes) pairs of ions into(from) the electrolyte solution. We show analytically that in the linear regime the mathematical description of this system maps onto that of the correlation-induced (self-)chemophoresis (CICP). This connection provides a unifying perspective of the two phenomena, within which one recovers and extends recent predictions as particular instances of CICP. Conversely, ion-phoretic particles are identified as candidates for experimental investigations into the rich variety of motility patterns predicted by CICP.
