✦ Synopsis

particle density. This problem can hardly be solved efficiently by direct simulation methods in such cases, where A stochastic weighted particle method is applied to a model nonlinear kinetic equation. A detailed study of various numerical ap-the changes of the particle density are of several orders of proximations is presented. The main effect achieved by the new magnitude. We refer to [1; 3, Chap. 10; 6; 7] concerning method is an artificial increase of the relative number of simulation particle schemes for the Boltzmann equation.
