Abstract
It is pointed out that the Boltzmann equation in the theory of metals reduces to a finite set of linear algebraic equations whenever the scattering probability can be written as a finite sum of the form $\sum$p$_i$(k) q$_i$(k'). The explicit form of the solution, valid for arbitrary energy surfaces, is derived for this model.Keywords
