Description

The diffusion of impurities in the Pfirsch-Schlueter regime is studied within a kinetic theory using appropriate orderings and Rosenbluth's collision operator. The distributions and fluxes are obtained for all values of the charges Z and densities N. The apparent discrepancy between already published results is explained by the fact that they belong to different domains of validity, clearly specified by this approach. (orig.)

Abstract (German)

Die Diffusion von Verunreinigungen im Pfirsch-Schlueter-Bereich wird im Rahmen einer kinetischen Theorie unter Verwendung geeigneter Ordnungen und des Rosenblueth'schen Kollisions-Operators untersucht. Verteilungen und Fluesse werden fuer alle Werte der Ladungen Z und Dichte N erhalten. Die scheinbare Diskrepanz zwischen schon veroeffentlichten Ergebnissen wird mit der Tatsache erklaert, dass sie zu verschiedenen Geltungsbereichen gehoeren, was bei dieser Methode klar herausgestellt wird.
