We prove a posteriori error estimates for a finite element method for steady-state, energy dependent, Fokker–Planck and Fermi pencil beam equations in two space dimensions and with a forward-peaked scattering (i.e. with velocities varying within the right unit semi-circle). Our estimates are based on a transversal symmetry assumption, together with a strong stability estimate for an associated dual problem combined with the Galerkin orthogonality of the finite element method.
