Statistical mechanics of non-equilibrium processes in plasmas and gases
Abstract
The turbulent equations for a neutral fluid are derived from the standpoint of Statistical Mechanics. The Three-Point Method of turbulence was investigated for limitations on the theory. Turbulent equations applicable to the adiabatic response of a plasma are developed.
