Kinetic equation for a classical nonideal plasma
Description
The Balescu-Lenard theory of plasma kinetic equation is reformulated in such a way that the resulting collision term now conserves the sum of the kinetic and potential energy to the first order in the plasma parameter. The new collision term is expressed in terms of the instantaneous values of the single-particle distribution function and its first derivative in time.
