Run and tumble particle under resetting: a renewal approach [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics A: Mathematical and Theoretical, 2018
We consider a particle undergoing run and tumble dynamics, in which its velocity stochastically reverses, in one dimension. We study the addition of a Poissonian resetting process occurring with rate r.
