Run-and-tumble particles in two-dimensions : Marginal position distributions

Abstract

We study a set of Run-and-tumble particle (RTP) dynamics in two spatial dimensions. In the first case of the orientation θ of the particle can assume a set of n possible discrete values while in the second case θ is a continuous variable. We calculate exactly the marginal position distributions for n = 3,4 and the continuous case and show that in all the cases the RTP shows a cross-over from a ballistic to diffusive regime. The ballistic regime is a typical signature of the active nature of the systems and is characterized by non-trivial position distributions which depends on the specific model. We also show that, the signature of activity at long-times can be found in the atypical fluctuations which we also characterize by computing the large deviation functions explicitly.
