Variance-reduced particle simulation of the Boltzmann transport equation in the relaxation-time approximation
We present an efficient variance-reduced particle simulation technique for solving the linearized Boltzmann transport equation in the relaxation-time approximation used for phonon, electron, and radiative transport, as well as for kinetic gas flows. The variance reduction is achieved by simulating o...
