## Abstract In this paper we present the asymptotic analysis of the linear Boltzmann equation for neutrons with a small positive parameter ϵ related to the mean free path, based upon the Chapman–Enskog procedure of the kinetic theory. We prove that if proper initial conditions derived by considerin
## Abstract The Ruijgrok–Wu model of the kinetic theory of rarefied gases is investigated both in the fluid‐dynamic and hydro‐dynamic scalings. It is shown that the first limit equation is a first order quasilinear conservation law, whereas the limit equation in the diffusive scaling is the viscous
We present a class of asymptotic-preserving (AP) schemes for the nonhomogeneous Fokker-Planck-Landau (nFPL) equation. Filbet and Jin [16] designed a class of AP schemes for the classical Boltzmann equation, by penalization with the BGK operator, so they become efficient in the fluid dynamic regime.
