A planar self-propelled particle with translational diffusion coefficient , propulsion speed , rotational diffusion and constant angular drift has orientation correlation . Integrating this correlation twice gives the displayed mean-square displacement. For , its long-time diffusion coefficient is . The full position-angle process has the Markov property, whereas position alone generally retains orientational memory. The angular second moment refers to an unwrapped angle.
