Abstract
According to the discussion in Section3 9, the asymptotic theory of the linearized Boltzmann equation developed in the last chapter (Chapter 3) is applicable only to the case where the Reynolds number is very small. In the present chapter, we extend the asymptotic theory, according to Sone [1971, so as to be applicable to the case where the Reynolds number takes a finite value.
