We are exploring in experiments the aggregation process in a shaken granular mixture of glass and magnetized steel beads,
filled in a horizontal vessel. After the shaking amplitude is suddenly decreased, the magnetized beads form a transient network that coarsens in time into compact clusters [1]. Recently it has been quantified how a homogeneous magnetic field B oriented in vertical direction impedes the emergence and growth of the networks [2]. Here we investigate how an increased volume fraction φ of the granulate accelerates the coarsening. Moreover, we explore the coarsening dynamics in the (φ,B)-control parameter space, and observe that low filling fractions are more susceptible to an increase of B than high ones [3].
