This work studies the fluctuating, nonequilibrium dynamics of an optically trapped Brownian particle within a dilute solution of active particles. The authors propose a stochastic model in which the particle moves in a harmonic potential and experiences both thermal and Poisson shot-noise kicks with specified amplitude distribution due to moving active particles in the bath. A variety of exact analytical results for the particle position statistics are derived, like mean, variance, skewness and excess kurtosis. Interestingly, the positions' distribution, for any choice of the parameters of the system, is leptokurtic, in accordance with recent experimental studies.
The work also sheds light on when and how to use the notion of effective temperature in such active systems.
