Kinetic Transport Theory Christian Schmeiser

Kinetic transport equations are mathematical descriptions of the dynamics of large particle ensembles in terms of a phase space (i.e. position-velocity space) distribution function. The PDF covers the following topics related to Kinetic Transport Theory : A formal derivation of the Boltzmann equation, Formal properties and macroscopic limits, Velocity averaging, Global existence for the Boltzmann equation.
