SUMMARY:From microscopic dynamics to macroscopic equations. Scaling limits
  for the Lorentz gas - Alessia Nota\, University of Bonn

CONTACT:Amit Einav
DESCRIPTION:In this lecture I will give a survey of some recent results co
 ncerning the rigorous derivation of macroscopic evolution equations starti
 ng from the microscopic model given by the random Lorentz Gas. In particul
 ar\, we will focus on the characterization of stationary nonequilibrium st
 ates exhibiting transport phenomena by validating the Fick’s law of diff
 usion in a situation of low density. Moreover\, we will present some recen
 t progress on the rigorous derivation of linear kinetic equations with an 
 external magnetic field.
