Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Pair collisions are the main interaction process in the Boltzmann gas dynamics. By making use of exactly the same physical assumptions as was done by Ludwig Boltzmann we wrote the kinetic equation for two-particle distribution function of molecules in gas mixtures. Instead of the collision integral, there are the linear scattering operator and the chaos projector in the right part of this equation. We developed a new technique for factorization of the scattering operator on the bases of right inverses to the Casimir operator of the group of rotations. We exactly transformed the Boltzmann collision integral to the Landau-Fokker-Planck like form.
