Extension of Boltzmann's Theory to a Liquid

摘要

A theory for the nonequilibrium statistical mechanics of a liquid is presented. This theory consists of coupled evolution equations for the one-particle momentum distribution, and for the two-particle correlation function, and it possesses the same important properties as does Boltzmann's theory, namely the local conservation laws, the local h theorem, and the correct equilibrium solution.
