Abstract

When studying fluids it is frequently the case that the construction of a reasonable approximate theory becomes an elusive endeavor. The more difficult and interesting these problems are the better it is to have exact results, coming directly from the microscopic kinetics, both to test the existing theoretical approaches and to gain insights into new ones. To progress in the formulation of fluid dynamics it is desirable not to have to undertake the description of a precise and particular realistic fluid. The latter is an interesting but different problem.
