Abstract:The question of constructing models for the evolution of clusters that differ in shape based on the Boltzmann’s H-theorem is investigated. The first, simplest kinetic equations are proposed and their properties are studied: the conditions for fulfilling the H-theorem (the conditions for detailed and semidetailed balance). These equations are to generalize the classical coagulation–fragmentation type equations for cases when not only mass but also particle shape is taken into account. To construct correct (phys… Show more
