Asymmetrical bimodal distributions with screw modes. (English) Zbl 1266.76046

The authors consider the Boltzmann equation for the model of hard spheres. Approximate bimodal solutions are obtained for the case when the Maxwellian modes are screws with different degrees of infinitesimality of angular velocities.
