Abstract: We study analytically the asymptotic behaviour of the average probability P(n,t) for the trajectory of a 2D Brownian particle wandering in the presence of randomly distributed traps to wind n times around a given point after a time t. It is shown that P(n,t)simexp(-csqrt{t}) (1+x^2)^{-1} with xsim n/sqrt{t}, where the first exponent represents a well known long-time tail of the probability that a particle will not be trapped.
