✍ Russel E. Caflisch 📂 Article 📅 1985 🏛 John Wiley and Sons 🌐 English ⚖ 583 KB

At zero temperature the Maxwellian distribution is a delta function of velocity. In this paper the Boltzmann equation is linearized around a delta function and then analyzed by a comparison method. Using these results and similar bounds for the nonlinear collision operator, a nonlinear boundary valu

In semiconductors the distributions of electrons satisfy a non-linear Boltzmann-Vlasov equation. We consider the half-space problem arising in the study of boundary layers when the mean free path tends to zero. We prove the existence and the uniqueness of the solution for any prescribed entering dis

## 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
