Asymptotic Analysis of Unsteady Neutron Transport Equation

Abstract

Consider the unsteady neutron transport equation with diffusive boundary condition in 2D convex domains. We establish the diffusive limit with both initial layer and boundary layer corrections. The major difficulty is the lack of regularity in the boundary layer with geometric correction. Our contribution relies on a detailed analysis of asymptotic expansions inspired by the compatibility condition and an intricate $L^{2m}-L^{\infty }$ framework which yields stronger remainder estimates.
