Abstract

Active matter has attracted wide-spread attention, due to unique phenomenologies like self-organization, phase separation, rectification etc and its far from equilibrium nature. Here I will discuss the recent analytical & numerical studies done on the statistics of thermodynamic quantities of Brownian motor (tilted washboard potential) immersed in an active bath and make comparisons with passive (thermal) bath. I will also present some of the different approximations used to study such systems and challenges associated with tackling such systems analytically.
