From Hyperbolic Systems to Kinetic Theory: a Personalized Quest - Lecture Notes of the Unione Matematica Italiana
Luc Tartar
Maxwell and Boltzmann created a kinetic theory of gases, using classical mechanics. This work examines modes used by energy, proves which equation governs each mode, and conjectures that the result may not look like the Boltzmann equation, and there can be more modes than those indexed by velocity.
