Motility-Induced Phase Separation (MIPS) is a notable phenomenon in which self-propelled particles undergo phase separation solely due to their intrinsic motility. This behavior starkly contrasts with passive systems, where active systems constantly form bubbles in liquids. Here, we introduce a stochastic bubble model to elucidate the changes in bubble area within Active Brownian Particle systems. We demonstrate that the bubble-area evolution can be described by a Langevin equation. Notably, this equation characterizes a unique category of stochastic systems: while it possesses an absorbing state, it concurrently maintains a stable nonequilibrium steady state distribution of areas.
