A random process with conserved momentum: 'particle decay'?

Consider a particle $p_1$ moving at unit speed along a straight line in $\mathbf{R}^2$, directed by some vector $v_1 \in \mathbf{S}^1$. Equid this particle with a Poisson clock $\tau_1$, with ...

Brownian particles in a box: the probability that a sphere (of some radius) centered on a particle only contains one particle for a duration of time

Imagine I have a set of $(s_1,...,s_N) \in S$ Brownian particles in a box of sidelength $L$, each with the same coefficient of diffusion $D$. We fix one particle at the center of the box, and draw a ...
