摘要

We study the 1D Boltzmann equation for a mixture of two gases on a torus with the initial condition of one gas near a vacuum and the other near a Maxwellian equilibrium state. An L-x(infinity) L-xi,beta(infinity) analysis is developed to study this mass diffusion problem, which is based on the Boltzmann equation for the single species hard sphere collision in an earlier work of the author. The decay rate of the solution is algebraic for a small time region and exponential for a large time region. Moreover, the exponential rate depends on the size of the domain.
