Abstract :
We investigate the stationary swarming motion of active Brownian particles in parabolic external potential and coupled to its mass center. Using Monte Carlo simulation we first show that the mass center approaches to rest after a sufficient long period of time. Thus, all the particles of a swarm have identical stationary motion relative to the mass center. Then the stationary probability density obtained by using the stochastic averaging method for quasi integrable Hamiltonian systems in our previous paper for the motion in 4-dimensional phase space of single active Brownian particle with Rayleigh friction model in parabolic potential is used to describe the relative stationary motion of each particle of the swarm and to obtain more probability densities including that for the total energy of the swarm. The analytical results are confirmed by comparing with those from simulation and also shown to be consistent with the existing deterministic exact steady-state solution.
