We study the rate of convergence to equilibrium for a collisionless (Knudsen)gas enclosed in a vessel in dimension $n \in \{2,3\}$. By semigroup arguments,we prove that in the $L^1$ norm, the polynomial rate of…
We consider the kinetic transport equation that arise in the Boltzmann-Grad limit of the two-dimensional periodic Lorentz Gas. This equation has been obtained by extending the phase space of positions and velocities through the introduction…
We investigate the behavior of granular gases in the limit of small Knudsen number, that is very frequent collisions. We deal with the strongly inelastic case, in one dimension of space and velocity. We are able to prove the convergence…
We consider a stochastic particle system in which a finite number of particles interact with one another via a common energy tank. Interaction rate for each particle is proportional to the square root of its kinetic energy, as is consistent…
From the microscopic theory, we derive a number conserving quantum kinetic equation, valid for a dilute Bose gas at any temperature, in which the binary collisions between the quasi-particles are mediated by phonon-like excitations (called…
We investigate the speed of approach to Maxwellian equilibrium for a collisionless gas enclosed in a vessel whose wall are kept at a uniform, constant temperature, assuming diffuse reflection of gas molecules on the vessel wall. We…
In this paper we discuss the analytical properties of the binary collision integral for a gas of ultrarelativistic particles interacting via a constant cross-section. Starting from a near-equilibrium expansion over a complete basis of…
We analyze the convergence to equilibrium in a family of Kac-like kinetic equations in multiple space dimensions. These equations describe the change of the velocity distribution in a spatially homogeneous gas due to binary collisions…
We consider a lattice model in which a tracer particle moves in the presence of randomly distributed immobile obstacles. The crowding effect due to the obstacles interplays with the quasi-confinement imposed by wrapping the lattice onto a…
A systematic study of the properties of particle and charge correlation functions in the two-dimensional Coulomb gas confined to a one-dimensional domain is undertaken. Two versions of this system are considered: one in which the positive…
A system of identical bosons with short-range (contact) interactions is studied. Their motion is confined to one dimension by a tight lateral trapping potential and, additionally, subject to a weak harmonic confinement in the longitudinal…
We provide a systematic study for the accretion of a collisionless, relativistic kinetic gas into a nonrotating black hole. To this end, we first solve the relativistic Liouville equation on a Schwarzschild background spacetime. The most…
This article is devoted to the study of two-dimensional Bose gases harmonically confined. We first summarize their equilibrium properties. For such a gas above the critical temperature, we also derive the frequencies and the damping of the…
Relative motion in a two-component, trapped atomic gas provides a sensitive probe of interactions. By studying the lowest frequency excitations of a two spin-state gas confined in a magnetic trap, we have explored the transition from the…
We study the dynamics of dilute and ultracold bosonic gases in a quasi two-dimensional (2D) configuration and in the collisionless regime. We adopt the 2D Landau-Vlasov equation to describe a three-dimensional gas under very strong harmonic…
This paper considers space homogenous Boltzmann kinetic equations in dimension $d$ with Maxwell collisions (and without Grad's cut-off). An explicit Markov coupling of the associated conservative (Nanbu) stochastic $N$-particle system is…
A simplified relativistic kinetic theory for gases with internal degrees of freedom, based on a BGK-type collision term, is considered. First the Boltzmann equation is rewritten in tetrad form and then thermal coefficients are determined to…
We investigate the kinetic theory of two-temperature plasmas for reactive polyatomic gas mixtures. The Knudsen number is taken proportional to the square root of the mass ratio between electrons and heavy-species, and thermal…
We study linear closure relations for the moments' method applied to simple kinetic equations. The equations are linear collisional models (velocity jump processes) which are well suited to this type of approximation. In this simplified, 1…
A kinetic equation for a dilute gas of hard spheres confined between two parallel plates separated a distance smaller than two particle dimeters is derived. It is a Boltzmann-like equation, which incorporates the effect of the confinement…
