new!: 2020, we (with Caprini and Marini Bettolo Marconi) have published on Phys. Rev. Lett. a numerical study showing that "flocking" (at least at short-range) is present also in purely spherical repulsive active Brownian particles, i.e. that velocities spontaneously align even in the absence of explicit Vicsek forces
