The conceptual problems arising in the definition and measurement of temperature in non-
equilibrium states are discussed in this paper in situations where the local-equilibrium …

We review the progress made in extended irreversible thermodynamics during the ten years
that have elapsed since the publication of our first review on the same subject (Rep. Prog …

With the recognition that fast flavor instabilities likely affect supernova and neutron-star-
merger neutrinos, using simulation data to pin down when and where the instabilities occur …

We present sub-arcsecond images of AB Auriga obtained with the IRAM Plateau de Bure
interferometer in the isotopologues of CO, and in continuum at 3 and 1.3 mm. These …

Résumé Nous appliquons ici le principe de minimisation d'entropie à l'équation de transfert
radiatif. Comme dans le cadre des équations cinétiques classiques, nous obtenons à l'aide …

It is commonly accepted that the evolution of the human eye has been driven by the
maximum intensity of the radiation emitted by the Sun. However, the interpretation of the …

Six computational methods for solution of the radiative transfer equation in an absorbing–
emitting, nonscattering gray medium were compared for a 2-m JP-8 pool fire. The emission …

Thermodynamics' second law analysis is the gateway for optimization in thermal equipments
and systems. Through entropy minimization techniques it is possible to increase the …

An accurate and rapid kinetic model describing the collisional transport of particles is
presented. It is derived from the Fokker-Planck equation and involves an angular closure in …

We investigate different models that are intended to describe the small mean free path
regime of a kinetic equation, a particular attention being paid to the moment closure by …
