Kinetic Theory beyond the Stosszahlansatz
Entropy, 2017 In a recent paper (Chliamovitch, et al., 2015), we suggested using the principle of maximum entropy to generalize Boltzmann’s Stosszahlansatz to higher-order distribution functions.

The Kinetic Theory of Mutation Rates
Axioms, 2023 The Luria–Delbrück mutation model is a cornerstone of evolution theory and has been mathematically formulated in a number of ways. In this paper, we illustrate how this model of mutation rates can be derived by means of classical statistical mechanics ...

Jet thermalization in QCD kinetic theory
Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023 We perform numerical studies in the framework of QCD kinetic theory to investigate the energy and angular profiles of a high energy parton — as a proxy for a jet produced in heavy ion collisions — passing through a Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP).

Dependence on the Initial Data for the Continuous Thermostatted Framework
Mathematics, 2019 The paper deals with the problem of continuous dependence on initial data of solutions to the equation describing the evolution of a complex system in the presence of an external force acting on the system and of a thermostat, simply identified with the ...

Turbulence through the Spyglass of Bilocal Kinetics
Entropy, 2018 In two recent papers we introduced a generalization of Boltzmann’s assumption of molecular chaos based on a criterion of maximum entropy, which allowed setting up a bilocal version of Boltzmann’s kinetic equation.

Physical Properties of Helium and Application in Respiratory Care
Encyclopedia, 2023 Helium is a low-density, inert, monoatomic gas that is widely used in medical applications. In respiratory care, Helium is mainly used as an adjunct therapy for patients with severe upper airway obstruction and asthma.

Entropy, 2017 Richard C. Tolman analyzed the relation between a temperature gradient and a gravitational field in an equilibrium situation. In 2012, Tolman’s law was generalized to a non-equilibrium situation for a simple dilute relativistic fluid.

Generalized phase-space kinetic and diffusion equations for classical and dispersive transport
New Journal of Physics, 2014 We formulate and solve a physically-based, phase space kinetic equation for transport in the presence of trapping. Trapping is incorporated through a waiting time distribution function.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.
