Why the Maxwellian Distribution is the Attractive Fixed Point of the Boltzmann Equation |
Abstract | ||
|---|---|---|
The origin of the Boltzmann factor is revisited. An alternative derivation
from the microcanonical picture is given. The Maxwellian distribution in a
mono-dimensional ideal gas is obtained by following this insight. Other
possible applications, as for instance the obtaining of the wealth distribution
in the human society, are suggested in the remarks. |
