We consider Brownian particles immersed in the fluid which flow is turbulent. We study the limit where the particles' inertia is weak and their velocity relaxes fast to the velocity of the flow. The trajectories of the particles in this…

We extend the ideas of (Barbour 1990) and use Stein's method to obtain a bound on the distance between a scaled time-changed random walk and a time-changed Brownian Motion. We then apply this result to bound the distance between a…
