Abstract:
We study the boundary value problem of the steady-state relativistic Boltzmann equation in the half-space, assigning the Dirichlet data for outgoing particles at the boundary and a Maxwellian at the far field, under the hard potential model. It is proved that the solvability condition varies with the Mach number of the problem.
