First passage time distribution for a random walker on a random forcing energy landscape

arXiv:1006.3088 · doi:10.1088/1742-5468/2010/09/P09005

Abstract

We present an analytical approximation scheme for the first passage time distribution on a finite interval of a random walker on a random forcing energy landscape. The approximation scheme captures the behavior of the distribution over all timescales in the problem. The results are carefully checked against numerical simulations.
