First-passage statistics of run-and-tumble particles with directional bias and stochastic trapping

We numerically investigate the first-passage time statistics of active particles in confined one- and two-dimensional geometries, subject to stochastic trapping and directional bias. The dynamics alternate between persistent ballistic runs, trapping phases with power-law distributed waiting times, and stochastic reorie...

Geometry-rectified transport of chiral active particles in a radial ratchet

Structured environments organize active-particle currents by coupling propulsion and orientational dynamics to geometry. Translationally periodic ratchets can produce a rotation-frequency-dependent drift across equivalent unit cells, but the locked position remains spatially degenerate. In this paper, we show that a ra...
