A Hybrid Method for Accelerated Simulation of Coulomb Collisions in a Plasma

If the collisional time scale for Coulomb collisions is comparable to the characteristic time scales for a plasma, then simulation of Coulomb collisions may be important for computation of kinetic plasma dynamics. This can be a computational bottleneck because of the large number of simulated particles and collisions (or phase-space resolution requirements in continuum algorithms), as well as t...

Tracking Interval for Type II Hybrid Censoring Scheme

The purpose of this paper is to obtain the tracking interval for difference of expected Kullback-Leibler risks of two models under Type II hybrid censoring scheme. This interval helps us to evaluate proposed models in comparison with each other. We drive a statistic which tracks the difference of expected Kullback–Leibler risks between maximum likelihood estimators of the distribution in two diff...

Entropy of Hybrid Censoring Schemes

A hybrid censoring scheme is a mixture of type I and type II censoring schemes. When $n$ items are placed on a life test, the experiment terminates under type I or type II hybrid censoring scheme if either a pre-fixed censoring time T or the rth (1<=r<=n&nbsp;is fixed) failure is first or later observed, respectively. In this paper, we investigate the decomposition of entropy in both hybrid cen...

Decoherence and entropy production in relativistic nuclear collisions

Short thermalization times of less than 1 fm/c for quark and gluon matter have been suggested by recent experiments at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. It has been difficult to justify this rapid thermalization in first-principle calculations based on perturbation theory or the color glass condensate picture. Here, we address the related question of the decoherence of the gluon field, which...

An entropy scheme for the Fokker - Planckcollision operator of plasma kinetic

We propose a nite diierence scheme to approximate the Fokker-Planck collision operator in 3 velocity dimensions. The principal feature of this scheme is to provide a decay of the numerical entropy. As a consequence, it preserves the collisional invariants and its stationary solutions are the discrete Maxwellians. We consider both the whole velocity-space problem and the bounded velocity problem...
