Abstract
We derive a Doi-Peliti Field Theory for transiently chiral active particles in two dimensions, that is, active Brownian particles that undergo tumbles via a diffusing reorientation angle. Using this framework, we compute the mean squared displacement for both uniformly distributed and fixed initial reorientations. We also calculate an array of orientation-based observables, to quantify the transiently chiral behaviour observed.
