On the mass transport by a Burgers velocity field
arXiv:cond-mat/9701076 · doi:10.1016/S0167-2789(97)00235-2
Abstract
The mass transport by a Burgers velocity field is investigated in the framework of the theory of stochastic processes. Much attention is devoted to the limit of vanishing viscosity (inviscid limit) describing the "adhesion model" for the early stage of the evolution of the Universe. In particular the mathematical foundations for the ansatz currently used in the literature to compute the mass distribution in the inviscid limit are provided.
