  We investigate the motion of a run-and-tumble particle (RTP) in one
dimension. We find the exact probability distribution of the particle with and
without diffusion on the infinite line, as well as in a finite interval. In the
infinite domain, this probability distribution approaches a Gaussian form in
the long-time limit, as in the case of a regular Brownian particle. At
intermediate times, this distribution exhibits unexpected multi-modal forms. In
a finite domain, the probability distribution reaches a steady state form with
peaks at the boundaries, in contrast to a Brownian particle. We also study the
relaxation to the steady state analytically. Finally we compute the survival
probability of the RTP in a semi-infinite domain. In the finite interval, we
compute the exit probability and the associated exit times. We provide
numerical verifications of our analytical results.
