Local time for run and tumble particle

نویسندگان

چکیده

We investigate the local time $(T_{loc})$ statistics for a run and tumble particle in an one dimensional inhomogeneous medium. The inhomogeneity is introduced by considering position dependent rate of form $R(x) = \gamma \frac{|x|^{\alpha}}{l^{\alpha}}$ with $\alpha \geq 0$. For =0$, we derive probability distribution $T_{loc}$ exactly which expressed as series $\delta$-functions coefficients can be interpreted multiple revisits to origin starting from origin. general $\alpha$, show that typical fluctuations scale $T_{loc} \sim t^{\frac{1+\alpha}{2+\alpha}}$ large $t$ their possesses scaling behaviour described function have computed analytically. In second part, study till RTP makes first passage $x=M~(>0)$. this case also, sum all values $\alpha~(\geq 0)$ appearing appropriate exit problems. All our analytical findings are supported numerical simulations.

First-passage time of run-and-tumble particles.

We solve the problem of first-passage time for run-and-tumble particles in one dimension. Exact expression is derived for the mean first-passage time in the general case, considering external force fields and chemotactic fields, giving rise to space-dependent swim speed and tumble rate. Agreement between theoretical formulae and numerical simulations is obtained in the analyzed case studies --c...

Run-and-tumble particles in speckle fields.

The random energy landscapes developed by speckle fields can be used to confine and manipulate a large number of micro-particles with a single laser beam. By means of molecular dynamics simulations, we investigate the static and dynamic properties of an active suspension of swimming bacteria embedded into speckle patterns. Looking at the correlation of the density fluctuations and the equilibri...

Directional persistence and the optimality of run-and-tumble chemotaxis

E. coli does chemotaxis by performing a biased random walk composed of alternating periods of swimming (runs) and reorientations (tumbles). Tumbles are typically modelled as complete directional randomisations but it is known that in wild type E. coli, successive run directions are actually weakly correlated, with a mean directional difference of approximately 63 degrees. We recently presented ...

Jamming and Attraction of Interacting Run-and-Tumble Random Walkers.

We study a model of bacterial dynamics where two interacting random walkers perform run-and-tumble motion on a one-dimensional lattice under mutual exclusion and find an exact expression for the probability distribution in the steady state. This stationary distribution has a rich structure comprising three components: a jammed component, where the particles are adjacent and block each other; an...

Statistical mechanics of interacting run-and-tumble bacteria.

We consider self-propelled particles undergoing run-and-tumble dynamics (as exhibited by E. coli) in one dimension. Building on previous analyses at drift-diffusion level for the one-particle density, we add both interactions and noise, enabling discussion of domain formation by "self-trapping," and other collective phenomena. Mapping onto detailed-balance systems is possible in certain cases.
