## Communicated by H. Neunzert Stationary half-space solutions of the linearized Boltzmann equation are studied by energy estimates methods. We extend the results of Bardos, Caflisch and Nicolaenko for a gas of hard spheres to a general potential. Asymptotic behaviour is obtained for hard as well
A contraction mapping (or, alternatively, an implicit function theory) argument is applied in combination with the Fredholm alternative to prove the existence of a unique stationary solution of the non-linear Boltzmann equation on a bounded spatial domain under a rather general reflection law at the
