Non-Gaussian displacement distributions in models of heterogeneous active particle dynamics

We study the effect of randomly distributed diffusivities and speeds in two models for active particle dynamics with active and passive fluctuations. We demonstrate how non-Gaussian displacement distributions emerge in these models in the long time limit, including Cauchy-type and exponential (Lapla...
