HYDRODYNAMICS OF RELAXING MEDIA

Abstract

A model system is considered in which there are relaxation lags in equilibration between sets of quantum states. In subsequent papers systems in which the various degrees of freedom are not in equilibrium will be treated. Application will be made to treatment of relaxation phenomena in the upper atmosphere both in the presence and absence of an orbiting vehicle. (Author)
