Abstract

We show that weak convergence of point measures and (2+ϵ)(2+\epsilon)-moment conditions imply hydrodynamic equations at the limit of infinitely many interacting molecules. The conditions are satisfied whenever the solutions of the classical equations for NN interacting molecules obey uniform in NN bounds. As an example, we show that this holds when the initial conditions are bounded and that the molecule interaction, a certain NN-rescaling of potentials that include all rpr^{-p} for 1<p1<p, is weak enough at the initial time. In this case the hydrodynamic equations coincide with the macroscopic equations of Maxwell.
