| The compact-to-dendritic transition in the reactive deposition of Brownian particles at $\log_{10} \mathrm{Da} = -2.12$. Color schemes vary depending on the panel, as indicated in the descriptions. Panels (a) and (b) depict two-dimensional deposition. The $N$ particles in these panels are rendered with a radius twice that of the actual radius for clarity. The $i$-th band of color moving outwards from the center corresponds to the structure after $i N / 5$ particles have been deposited. (a) Initially, the cluster displays a compact morphology. (b) However, upon reaching a critical radius, it spontaneously forms dendritic branches. (c) Main Panel: During three-dimensional deposition, a similar dendritic morphology emerges at large length scales. Particles are colored based on their distance from the origin. Inset: A two-dimensional slice through the initial compact 3D cluster, $N = 1 \times 10^{6}$. The color scheme follows a continuous gradient based on the deposition order. |
