The Boltzmann equation and Cosmic Microwave Background

open access: yesRevista de Investigación de Física, 2023
Observations on the anisotropies of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) have become a fundamental tool in Cosmology. We present a brief description of the mformalism necessary to understand the evolution of the anisotropies, and how their power ...

Non-Boltzmann behavior from the Boltzmann equation

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 1995
We compute the stress autocorrelation function in a two- and three-dimensional system by using the lattice-Boltzmann method. The algebraic long-time behavior ∼t-d/2 in the stress correlation function is clearly observed. The amplitude of this tail is compared with the mode-coupling expression for the long-time tail in the stress correlation function ...

On discrete models of Boltzmann-type kinetic equations

open access: yesСовременная математика: Фундаментальные направления
The known nonlinear kinetic equations, in particular, the wave kinetic equation and the quantum Nordheim–Uehling–Uhlenbeck equations are considered as a natural generalization of the classical spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation.

Variational nodal methods for neutron transport: 40 years in review

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2022
The variational nodal method for solving the neutron transport equation has evolved over 40 years. Based on a functional form of the Boltzmann neutron transport equation, the method now comprises a complete set of variants that can be employed for ...

Electro-osmotic flow of a third-grade fluid past a channel having stretching walls

open access: yesNonlinear Engineering, 2019
The electro-osmotic flow of a third grade fluid past a channel having stretching walls has been studied in this paper. The channel height is taken much greater than the thickness of the electric double layer comprising of the Stern and diffuse layers ...

A Three-Dimensional Semiclassical Lattice Boltzmann Method for Lid-Driven Cubic Cavity Flows

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2011
A three-dimensional lattice Boltzmann method based on the Uehling-Uhlenbeck Boltzmann-BGK equation is presented. The method is directly derived by projecting the kinetic governing equation onto the tensor Hermite polynomials and various hydrodynamic ...

Kinetic theory of gases: stochastic thermodynamics avant la lettre

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Ensino de Física
We show that the kinetic theory of gases developed by Clausius, Maxwell, and Boltzmann can be understood as stochastic thermodynamics. This comprehension is based on the recognition that the dynamics used by Maxwell to demonstrate his distribution of ...

Low-Density Asymptotic Behavior of Observables of Hard Sphere Fluids

open access: yesAdvances in Mathematical Physics, 2018
The paper deals with a rigorous description of the kinetic evolution of a hard sphere system in the low-density (Boltzmann–Grad) scaling limit within the framework of marginal observables governed by the dual BBGKY (Bogolyubov–Born–Green–Kirkwood–Yvon ...

Boltzmann-Based Empirical Model to Calculate Volume Loss during Spirit Ageing

open access: yesBeverages, 2019
The Boltzmann equation is applied to fit data of volume loss for evaporation (in %) during spirit ageing in northern white oak (Quercus Alba) standard barrels of 205 L (+/− 10 L) using a temperature and humidity controlled cellar.
