abstract
We study the dynamics of a single inertial run-and-tumble particle on a straight line. The motion of this particle is characterized by two intrinsic time-scales, namely, an inertial and an active time-scale. We show that interplay of these two time-scales leads to the emergence of four distinct regimes, characterized by different dynamical behaviour of mean-squared displacement and survival probability. We analytically compute the position distributions in these regimes when the two time-scales are well separated. We show that in the large-time limit, the distribution has a large deviation form and compute the corresponding large deviation function analytically. We also find the persistence exponents in the different regimes theoretically. All our results are supported with numerical simulations.

Nonequilibrium steady state of Brownian motion in an intermittent potential
