Product details
"From Hyperbolic Systems to Kinetic Theory" is a technical book that explores the connection between hyperbolic systems and kinetic theory. The author, Luc Tartar, examines the challenges and limitations of classical kinetic theory, which was developed by Maxwell and Boltzmann. In particular, the derivation of the irreversible Boltzmann equation from a reversible Hamiltonian framework is discussed. Tartar highlights the role of probabilities and their influence on physical reality, as well as the problems that arise from the application of the Boltzmann equation in quantum mechanics. By introducing H-masses, a tool for homogenization, the book offers new perspectives on the weaknesses of classical approaches and discusses the various energy modes that are relevant in this context. This work is of interest to both professionals and students who wish to engage with the fundamentals of kinetic theory and its applications in modern physics.
