For persistence lengths much larger than the particle diameter, the directors do not change, but the collision can be modeled as producing a net displacement on the particles compared to their free motion in the absence of the encounter. With these elements, a Boltzmann-Enskog-like kinetic theory is built. A linear stability analysis of the homogeneous state predicts a density instability resulting from the effective velocity reduction of tagged particles predicted by the theory.engjournal articlehttps://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.132.208301https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.132.208301open access539.1ClusteringKinetic theoryActive Brownian particlesJanus particlesSelf-propelled particlesTheories of collective dynamics & active matterPartículas2207 Física Atómica y Nuclear
