Abstract
A diffusion equation is derived for the energy distribution of a gas of noninteracting point particles following chaotic trajectories inside a slowly-time-dependent container. We discuss the relevance of this problem to results concerning ergodic adiabatic Hamiltonian systems, as well as to one-body dissipation in nuclear dynamics.This publication has 19 references indexed in Scilit:
