Abstract:

We will investigate an interacting particle system in which two types of Brownian particles annihilate at a certain rate when they're near the interface of their respective domains. This can model the propagation of charges in a single solar cell. We will show that the particle density is the solution of a coupled PDE and obtain a probabilistic representation of the solution.
