    Topics: Physics
    Notes: Abstract We study special aspects of the N-body problem with masses varying according to the Eddington-Jeans law with powers n=2 and 3. Our main result is that a particular set of variables can be found that allows one to write the pertinent Boltzmann and Poisson equations in a fashion similar to that corresponding to the usual fixed mass situation.

    Topics: Physics
    Notes: Abstract A variational principle which applies directly to the integrodifferential form of the linearized Boltzmann equation is introduced. Extremely general boundary conditions and collision terms are allowed. For a class of interesting problems, the value of the functional to be varied is shown to be closely related to quantities of great physical interest. The formalism is applied to the treatment of plane Couette flow for different forms of the collision term (BGK model, rigid spheres, Maxwell's molecules).

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Physics
    Notes: Abstract This paper is concerned with systems which are not in thermal equilibrium because of production and absorption of particles. On the basis of a new Hamiltonian describing such a nonequilibrium system, we develop a method for deriving kinetic equations for singlet density, time correlations of density, etc., including all the higher order interactions necessary to describe the production and absorption of particles. The foundations of the Boltzmann and Langevin equations for neutron distributions are studied. The time-correlation function is shown to obey a kinetic equation identical to that for the singlet density. It is also shown that the description of density fluctuations based on the Langevin equation is equivalent to the simplest decoupling of the rigorous hierarchy of equations for correlation functions.

    Topics: Physics
    Notes: Abstract In a recent paper by Krook and Wu, the nonlinear Boltzmann equation for an infinite, spatially homogeneous, isotropic monoatomic gas of constant density and kinetic energy and with an elastic differential cross section that varies inversely as relative speed has been reduced to an infinite sequence of moment equations. The present note observes that the moment equations are successively integrable and shows that as time goes to infinity, the distribution tends to be Maxwellian.

    Topics: Physics
    Notes: Abstract The long-time behavior of the Lorentz electron gas is studied in the presence of a uniform external field. A discussion of the rigorous solution of the one-dimensional Boltzmann equation is followed by the derivation of the asymptotic form of the velocity distribution in an arbitrary number of dimensions. The system is shown to absorb energy from the field without bounds, which excludes the usually assumed steady state with finite thermal energy density.

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Physics
    Notes: Abstract Rarefied gas flow behavior is usually described by the Boltzmann equation, the Navier-Stokes system being valid when the gas is less rarefied. Slip boundary conditions for the Navier-Stokes equations are derived in a rigorous and systematic way from the boundary condition at the kinetic level (Boltzmann equation). These slip conditions are explicitly written in terms of asymptotic behavior of some linear half-space problems. The validity of this analysis is established in the simple case of the Couette flow, for which it is proved that the right boundary conditions are obtained.

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Physics
    Notes: Abstract The hierarchy of moments of the Boltzmann equation for a binary mixture of mechanically different Maxwell molecules is exactly solved. The solution corresponds to a nonequilibrium homogeneous steady state generated by an external force that accelerates particles of each species (or “color”) along opposite directions. As a consequence, macroscopic fluxes are induced in spite of the absence of concentration gradients. Explicit expressions for the fluxes of mass and momentum as functions of the field strength, the mass ratio, the molar fractions, and the interaction constant ratio are obtained. In particular, the color conductivity coefficient reduces to the mutual diffusion coefficient in the zero-field limit. Some physically interesting limiting cases are discussed. The maximum-entropy method is used to construct an approximate velocity distribution function from the exact knowledge of the mass and momentum fluxes. This distribution is exact up to second order in the color field and also in the limit of large color field.

    Notes: Abstract Based on the recently found closed-form expressions of the Boltzmann collision integrals in a rigid-sphere gas for multi-Maxwellian distributions, a few typical sets of contour surfaces of the integrals in the space of molecular velocities are presented. These show graphically the tendency toward equilibrium under the influence of collisions. A brief preliminary comparison with Monte Carlo results is also given.

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000

    Notes: Abstract The Fokker-Planck equation for a heavy particle in a dilute gas of light particles is derived from a Boltzmann equation. Inelastic collisions between the heavy and light particles are considered, and explicit quadratures for the frictional coefficients are given in terms of the scattering kernels. It is shown that the general formulation reduces properly to known results in the cases of pure elastic and pure diffuse scattering, respectively.

    Source: Springer Online Journal Archives 1860-2000
    Topics: Physics
    Notes: Abstract When nonequilibrium molecular dynamics is used to impose isothermal shear on a two-body periodic system of hard disks or spheres, the equations of motion reduce to those describing a Lorentz gas under shear. In this shearing Lorentz gas a single particle moves, isothermally, through a spatially periodic shearing crystal of infinitely massive scatterers. The curvilinear trajectories are calculated analytically and used to measure the dilute Lorentz gas viscosity at several strain rates. Simulations and solutions of Boltzmann's equation exhibit shear thinning resembling that found inN-body nonequilibrium simulations. For the three-dimensional Lorentz gas we obtained an exact expression for the viscosity which is valid at all strain rates. In two dimensions this is not possible due to the anisotropy of the scattering.
