Run-and-tumble motion in a harmonic potential: field theory and entropy production

چکیده
Abstract Run-and-tumble (RnT) motion is an example of active motility where particles move at constant speed and change direction random times. In this work we study RnT with diffusion in a harmonic potential one dimension via path integral approach. We derive Doi-Peliti field theory use it to calculate the entropy production other observables closed form. All our results are exact.

A path-integral formulation of the run and tumble motion and chemotaxis in Escherichia coli
Bacteria such as Escherichia coli move about in a series of runs and tumbles: while a run state (straight motion) entails all the flagellar motors spinning in counterclockwise mode, a tumble is caused by a shift in the state of one or more motors to clockwise spinning mode. In the presence of an attractant gradient in the environment, runs in the favourable direction are extended, and this resu...
متن کاملRun-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...
متن کاملFeedback between motion and sensation provides nonlinear boost in run-and-tumble navigation
Many organisms navigate gradients by alternating straight motions (runs) with random reorientations (tumbles), transiently suppressing tumbles whenever attractant signal increases. This induces a functional coupling between movement and sensation, since tumbling probability is controlled by the internal state of the organism which, in turn, depends on previous signal levels. Although a negative...
متن کاملRun-and-tumble-like motion of active colloids in viscoelastic media
Run-and-tumblemotion is a prominent locomotion strategy employed bymany livingmicroorganisms. It is characterized by straight swimming intervals (runs), which are interrupted by sudden reorientation events (tumbles). In contrast, directional changes of syntheticmicroswimmers (active particles) are caused by rotational diffusion, which is superimposedwith their translationalmotion and thus leads...
متن کاملsimulation and experimental studies for prediction mineral scale formation in oil field during mixing of injection and formation water
abstract: mineral scaling in oil and gas production equipment is one of the most important problem that occurs while water injection and it has been recognized to be a major operational problem. the incompatibility between injected and formation waters may result in inorganic scale precipitation in the equipment and reservoir and then reduction of oil production rate and water injection rate. ...
