Material from IMA Talks Technology is increasingly advancing into regimes in which particle mean-free paths are comparable to the length scales of interest, and where traditional transport models therefore break down. For example, drift-diffusion models of electron-hole transport break down for submicron semiconductors because the scale of interest are very small, while Navier-Stokes approximations of fluid dynamics break down in outer planetary atmospheres or space shuttle reentry problem, where the mean free path are very large. Such situations can be described by particle simulations but the cost of carrying these out is much greater than that of small mean-free path models, often becoming prohibitive when one is near small mean-free path regimes. This makes the simulation of problems in which transition regimes coexist with small mean-free path regimes particularly difficult. This difficulty is compounded when the geometry is complicated or even random.

Abstract: A framework is presented for deriving well-posed transition regime models for linear kinetic equations. Traditionally moment closures or Chapman-Enskog type expansions have been used to derive such models. Moment closures lead to large first-order systems while expansions yield single higher-order equations that can be ill-posed. Elements of both these traditional approaches are present in the new framework, which yields well-posed systems of moderate size and order that capture the same formal accuracy as both large moment systems and higher order Chapman-Enskog approximations. The framework is illustrated in the context of monoenergetic, slab symmetric photon transport. Wednesday, January 14

Editorial Staff quick search Search Physics World Previous Physics World April 1999 Next Boltzmann: a disordered genius Review: April 1999 Ludwig Boltzmann: The Man Who Trusted Atoms Carlo Cercignani The 1860s and 1870s form one of the most exciting periods in physics, probably on a par with the 1920s and 1930s when quantum mechanics was developed. James Clerk Maxwell was working on his theory of the electromagnetic field, Rudolf Clausius introduced the concept of entropy in thermodynamics, and kinetic theory was starting to become fashionable. It was also during this period that the Austrian physicist, mathematician and philosopher Ludwig Boltzmann began his scientific career and wrote some of his most famous papers. Born in Vienna on 20 February 1844 during the night between Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday, Boltzmann used to say that this was why his mood could swing so violently from one of great happiness to one of deep depression. It was a tragedy that Boltzmann did not live to experience the glory of his pioneering ideas, for he committed suicide during one such depression in September 1906. Carlo Cercignani starts his book with a short biography of Boltzmann, and includes many original quotations from him and his contemporaries. Among these are a jocular poem by Boltzmann called "Beethoven in Heaven" and a quotation from Robert Musil's novel The Man Without Qualities, which characterizes the Austro-Hungarian empire in the early 1900s. The chapter on "physics before Boltzmann" also contains numerous quotations and biographical notes about scientists such as Isaac Newton, Roger Josef Boscovich, Sady Carnot and Michael Faraday. Cercignani is clearly a man of wide reading, and this is obvious not just in his parenthetical remarks in the main part of the book, which covers Boltzmann's scientific work, but throughout the other chapters as well.
