We consider a slightly non-uniform one-component gas with weak potential interaction. The basis of the investigation is the known kinetic equation in the case of small interaction which is truncated up to the second order of smallness. This equation contains a nonlocal collision integral of the second order in small interaction. In this paper we consider the hydrodynamic stage of the system evolution, and, in contrast to the standard hydrodynamics, we take into account the non-locality of the collision integral. We propose the following set of the reduced description parameters which are the densities of the conserved quantities: the particle number density, the momentum density, and the total energy density. It should be stressed that in contrast to the standard hydrodynamics, the kinetic energy is not conserved, and only the total system energy is conserved if the nonlocal collision integral is used. Definitions of the system velocity and temperature are proposed; it should be stressed that the proposed temperature definition is based on the total system energy rather than on the kinetic one. The hydrodynamics in the leading order in small gradients is investigated, and it is shown that the system one-particle distribution function in the leading-in-gradients order coincides with the Maxwellian one. Particle number density, velocity and temperature time evolution equations (hydrodynamic equations) are derived in the non-dissipative case. The leading-in-interaction orders of the obtained equations coincide with the corresponding equations in the framework of the standard hydrodynamics. The corrections of the first and second order in small interaction are also obtained.

We study relativistic hydrodynamics in the presence of a non vanishing spin potential. Using a variety of techniques we carry out an exhaustive analysis, and identify the constitutive relations for the stress tensor and spin current in such a setup, allowing us to write the hydrodynamic equations of motion to second order in derivatives. We then solve the equations of motion in a certain dynamical spin limit and in a perturbative setup and find surprisingly good agreement with measurements of global \LambdaΛ-hyperon polarization carried out at RHIC.

Disappearance voltages for second order reflections can be determined experimentally in a variety of ways. The more subjective methods, such as Kikuchi line disappearance and bend contour imaging, involve comparing a series of diffraction patterns or micrographs taken at intervals throughout the disappearance range and selecting that voltage which gives the strongest disappearance effect. The estimated accuracies of these methods are both to within 10 kV, or about 2-4%, of the true disappearance voltage, which is quite sufficient for using these voltages in further calculations. However, it is the necessity of determining this information by comparisons of exposed plates rather than while operating the microscope that detracts from the immediate usefulness of these methods if there is reason to perform experiments at an unknown disappearance voltage.The convergent beam technique for determining the disappearance voltage has been found to be a highly objective method when it is applicable, i.e. when reasonable crystal perfection exists and an area of uniform thickness can be found. The criterion for determining this voltage is that the central maximum disappear from the rocking curve for the second order spot.
