Non-Gaussian behaviour of a self-propelled particle on a substrate
The overdamped Brownian motion of a self-propelled particle which is driven by a projected internal force is studied by solving the Langevin equation analytically. The "active" particle under study is restricted to move along a linear channel. The direction of its internal force is orienta...
