The solution of the linear transport equation used for the study of neutral particle fields requires the imposition of appropriate boundary conditions. The choice of the conditions to impose for an infinite medium is not straightforward. The question has been given different formulations in the literature with various justifications based on some physical reasoning. Some aspects of the question are here analysed, from both the mathematical and the physical point of view. It is concluded that the inspiring golden rule should be the establishment of conditions that do not require any reference to the properties of the specific medium being considered for their justification.

The influence of the boundary conditions used in the Wigner-Seitz approximation applied to the neutron star inner crust is examined. The generalized energy functional method which includes neutron and proton pairing correlations is used. Predictions of t

Gauge systems in the confining phase induce constraints at the boundaries of the effective string, which rule out the ordinary bosonic string even with short distance modifications. Allowing topological excitations, corresponding to winding around the colour flux tube, produces at the quantum level a universal free fermion string with a boundary phase nu=1/4. This coincides with a model proposed some time ago in order to fit Monte Carlo data of 3D and 4D Lattice gauge systems better. A universal value of the thickness of the colour flux tube is predicted.
In this paper we consider two numerical scheme based on trapezoidal rule in time for the linearized KdV equation in one space dimension. The goal is to derive some suitable artificial boundary conditions for these two full discretization using Z-transformation. We give some numerical benchmark examples from the literature to illustrate our findings.
In this paper, we consider artificial boundary conditions for the linearized mixed Korteweg-de Vries (KDV) Benjamin-Bona-Mahoney (BBM) equation which models water waves in the small amplitude, large wavelength regime. Continuous (respectively discrete) artificial boundary conditions involve non local operators in time which in turn requires to compute time convolutions and invert the Laplace transform of an analytic function (respectively the Z-transform of an holomor-phic function). In this paper, we propose a new, stable and fairly general strategy to carry out this crucial step in the design of transparent boundary conditions. For large time simulations, we also introduce a methodology based on the asymptotic expansion of coefficients involved in exact direct transparent boundary conditions. We illustrate the accuracy of our methods for Gaussian and wave packets initial data.
We use a Bayesian inference analysis to explore the sensitivity of Taylor expansion parameters of the nuclear equation of state (EOS) to the neutron star dimensionless tidal deformability ($Lambda$) on 1 to 2 solar masses neutron stars. A global power law dependence between tidal deformability and compactness parameter (M/R) is verified over this mass region. To avoid superfluous correlations between the expansion parameters, we use a correlation-free EOS model based on a recently published meta-modeling approach. We find that assumptions in the prior distribution strongly influence the constraints on $Lambda$. The $Lambda$ constraints obtained from the neutron star merger event GW170817 prefer low values of $L_text{sym}$ and $K_text{sym}$, for a canonical neutron star with 1.4 solar mass. For neutron star with mass $<1.6$ solar mass, $L_text{sym}$ and $K_text{sym}$ are highly correlated with the tidal deformability. For more massive neutron stars, the tidal deformability is more strongly correlated with higher order Taylor expansion parameters.
