Particles moving at a constant speed with either a fixed or a Gaussian distributed magnitude of curvature were considered. It was found that at small speeds the diffusivity was independent of the speed and at large particle speeds, the diffusivity depended on the speed through a novel exponent.Molecular physicsComputer simulationParticle size analysisThermal diffusionarticle918806011
