The Jeans stability criterium for gravitational collapse is examined for the case of an inert binary mixture in local equilibrium, neglectinq dissipative effects. The corresponding transport equations are established using kinetic theory within the Euler regime approximation. It is shown that the corresponding dispertion relation is modified, yielding corrections to the Jeans wave number. This formalism that can be generalized for several interesting cases involving dissipation.

In this paper, we revisit the governing equations for linear magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves and instabilities existing within a magnetized, plane-parallel, self-gravitating slab. Our approach allows for fully non-uniformly magnetized slabs, which de
viate from isothermal conditions, such that the well-known Alfven and slow continuous spectra enter the description. We generalize modern MHD textbook treatments, by showing how self-gravity enters the MHD wave equation, beyond the frequently adopted Cowling approximation. This clarifies how Jeans instability generalizes from hydro to magnetohydrodynamic conditions without assuming the usual Jeans swindle approach. Our main contribution lies in reformulating the completely general governing wave equations in a number of mathematically equivalent forms, ranging from a coupled Sturm-Liouville formulation, to a Hamiltonian formulation linked to coupled harmonic oscillators, up to a convenient matrix differential form. The latter allows us to derive analytically the eigenfunctions of a magnetized, self-gravitating thin slab. In addition, as an example we give the exact closed form dispersion relations for the hydrodynamical p- and Jeans-unstable modes, with the latter demonstrating how the Cowling approximation modifies due to a proper treatment of self-gravity. The various reformulations of the MHD wave equation open up new avenues for future MHD spectral studies of instabilities as relevant for cosmic filament formation, which can e.g. use modern formal solution strategies tailored to solve coupled Sturm-Liouville or harmonic oscillator problems.
Entropy production during the process of thermal phase-separation of multiphase flows is investigated by means of a discrete Boltzmann kinetic model. The entropy production rate is found to increase during the spinodal decomposition stage and to decr
ease during the domain growth stage, attaining its maximum at the crossover between the two. Such behaviour provides a natural criterion to identify and discriminate between the two regimes. Furthermore, the effects of heat conductivity, viscosity and surface tension on the entropy production rate are investigated by systematically probing the interplay between non-equilibrium energy and momentum fluxes. It is found that the entropy production rate due to energy fluxes is an increasing function of the Prandtl number, while the momentum fluxes exhibit an opposite trend. On the other hand, both contributions show an increasing trend with surface tension. The present analysis inscribes within the general framework of non-equilibrium thermodynamics and consequently it is expected to be relevant to a broad class of soft-flowing systems far from mechanical and thermal equilibrium.
Many features of granular media can be modelled as a fluid of hard spheres with {em inelastic} collisions. Under rapid flow conditions, the macroscopic behavior of grains can be described through hydrodynamic equations. At low-density, a fundamental
basis for the derivation of the hydrodynamic equations and explicit expressions for the transport coefficients appearing in them is provided by the Boltzmann kinetic theory conveniently modified to account for inelastic binary collisions. The goal of this chapter is to give an overview of the recent advances made for binary granular gases by using kinetic theory tools. Some of the results presented here cover aspects such as transport properties, energy nonequipartition, instabilities, segregation or mixing, non-Newtonian behavior, .... In addition, comparison of the analytical results with those obtained from Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations is also carried out, showing the reliability of kinetic theory to describe granular flows even for strong dissipation.
The chemical ordering transition in a binary alloy is examined using classical density functional theory for a binary mixture. The ordered lattice is assumed to be obtained from the disordered lattice by a volume change only, as in L1_2 ordering from
an face centered cubic chemically disordered crystal. Using the simplest possible approach, second order truncation of the expansion, non-overlapping Gaussian distributions at the sites, and expansion of the correlation functions about the sites, a very tractable expansion is obtained. Under these assumptions the expansion consists of the same terms as the lattice gas formalism where the lattice is implicitly taken as fixed, plus additional interaction terms, and an additional entropy term. This additional entropy term represents a lowest order approximation to the vibrational entropy change.
In this work, we introduce an effective model for both ideal and viscous fluid dynamics within the framework of kinetic field theory (KFT). The main application we have in mind is cosmic structure formation where gaseous components need to be gravita
tionally coupled to dark matter. However, we expect that the fluid model is much more widely applicable. The idea behind the effective model is similar to that of smoothed particle hydrodynamics. By introducing mesoscopic particles equipped with a position, a momentum, and an enthalpy, we construct a free theory for such particles and derive suitable interaction operators. We then show that the model indeed leads to the correct macroscopic evolution equations, namely the continuity, Euler, Navier-Stokes, and energy conservation equations of both ideal and viscous hydrodynamics.
