We study a model of mass-bearing coagulating-fragmenting planar Brownian particles. Coagulation occurs when two particles are within a distance of order ε. Our model is macroscopically described by an inhomogeneous Smoluchowski’s equation in the low ε limit provided that the initial number of particles N is of order |log ε|. When a detailed balance condition is satisfied, we establish a central limit theorem by showing that in the low ε limit, the particle density fluctuation fields obey an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck stochastic differential equation.
