Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Singular Limits of Solutions of Boltzmann's Equations
A survey is made of various singular limits of solutions of the Boltzmann equation which, taken together, describe most of the qualitative and quantitative properties of a rarefied gas.* Included are large and small mean-free-path limits, boundary and initial layers, and the influence of instabilities on the propagation of correlations by non-chaotic Boltzmann equations.
