    Viscous fingering, a classic hydrodynamic instability, is governed by the the competition between destabilising viscosity ratios and stabilising surface tension or thermal diffusion. We show that the channel confinement can induce ‘diffusion’-like stabilising effects on viscous fingering even in the absence of interfacial tension and thermal diffusion, when a clear oil invades the mixture of the same oil and non-colloidal particles. The key lies in the generation of long-range dipolar disturbance flows by highly confined particles that form a monolayer inside a Hele-Shaw cell. We develop a coarse-grained model whose results correctly predict universal fingering dynamics that is independent of particle concentrations. This new mechanism offers insights into manipulating and harnessing collective motion in non-equilibrium systems.
