The book aims to present the recent developments in Rational Extended Thermodynamics
(RET) of gases in both classical and relativistic cases. The RET theory is a …

This book provides an overview of the basic concepts and new methods in the emerging
scientific area known as quantum plasmas. In the near future, quantum effects in plasmas …

The quantum hydrodynamic model for charged particle systems is extended to the cases of
nonzero magnetic fields. In this way, quantum corrections to magnetohydrodynamics are …

Semiconductor devices are ubiquitous in the modern computer and telecommunications
industry. A precise knowledge of the transport equations for electron flow in semiconductors …

Due to the rapid decrease in device dimensions the well-established TCAD tools are
pushed to the limits of their applicability. Since conventional MOSFETs are already …

Abstract We show that Quantum Energy-Transport and Quantum Drift-Diffusion models can
be derived through diffusion limits of a collisional Wigner equation. The collision operator …

In this paper we consider the global existence of weak solutions to a class of Quantum
Hydrodynamics (QHD) systems with initial data, arbitrarily large in the energy norm. These …

We present a numerical algorithm to implement entropy-based (M_N) moment models in the
context of a simple, linear kinetic equation for particles moving through a material slab. The …

We introduce a modification to the standard spherical harmonic closure used with linear
kinetic equations of particle transport. While the standard closure is known to produce …
