A covariant and extended model for relativistic magnetofluiddynamics
We will formulate a macroscopic theory of Superfluidity, using a particular constitutive equation of differential form which we will demonstrate to be equivalent to a non-local relation between the stress and the density.
Numerically solving the Boltzmann kinetic equations with the small Knudsen number is challenging due to the stiff nonlinear collision terms. A class of asymptotic-preserving schemes was introduced in [F. Filbet and S. Jin,J. Comput. Phys. 229 (2010) 7625–7648] to handle this kind of problems. The idea is to penalize the stiff collision term by a BGK type operator. This method, however, encounters its own difficulty when applied to the quantum Boltzmann equation. To define the quantum Maxwellian...
