We consider two different models for colloidal particles. In the first model, we consider their free motion to be diffusion while in the second model we take it to be integrated Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process. In both models, we derived…

Unlike equilibrium systems, active matter is not governed by the conventional laws of thermodynamics. Through a series of analytic calculations and Langevin dynamics simulations, we explore how systems cross over from equilibrium to active…
