The kinetic theory of the diffusio-electric polarization is developed analogous to the previously treated thermo-electric polarization (Waldmann, Hess 1969). The relevant constitutive law is derived. The characteristic coefficient determining the magnitude of this effect is related to collision integrals obtained from the Waldmann-Snider equation. A simple model calculation shows that this coefficient will be nonzero, in general, and of measurable size, for polar symmetric top molecules

Abstract Two-dimensional binary gas mixture outflow from a vessel into vacuum through a thin slit is studied on the basis of direct solution of the Boltzmann kinetic equation. For evaluation of collision integrals in the Boltzmann equation a conservative projection method is used. Numerical simulation of a two-dimensional argon-neon gas mixture outflow from a vessel into vacuum was performed. Graphs of mixture components flow rate dependence on time during the flow formation, as well as fields of molecular density and temperature for steady-state regime, were obtained.

Starting from Boltzmann�like equations, moment equations for a general gas mixture are developed. The equations are closed, and the collision integrals evaluated, by using Grad's 13�moment approximations for the velocity distribution functions. The collision integrals are determined for all possible types of binary encounters, which include recombination and attachment, spontaneous fission and natural decay, charge exchange and elastic collisions, and excitation and fission� and fusion�like processes. The derivation of transport relationships is considered, while the extension of the results to include such direct radiative phenomena as absorption, photoionization, stimulated emission, and Compton scattering is also briefly discussed.

A kinetic theory treatment of the influence of perpendicular magnetic and electric fields on the viscosity is given for a polar gas of symmetric top molecules. Expressions for the 9 independent viscosity coefficients are derived. In particular, the electric field influence on the transverse viscomagnetic pressure difference is studied.
