On the non-Markovian Enskog Equation for Granular Gases

Abstract

We develop a rigorous formalism for the description of the kinetic evolution of many-particle systems with the dissipative interaction. The relationships of the evolution of a hard sphere system with inelastic collisions described within the framework of marginal observables governed by the dual BBGKY hierarchy and the evolution of states described by the Cauchy problem of the Enskog kinetic equation for granular gases are established. Moreover, we consider the Boltzmann--Grad asymptotic behavior of the constructed non-Markovian Enskog kinetic equation for granular gases in a one-dimensional space.
