Collisional Relaxation

Collisional Relaxation is a theoretical construct in plasma physics and the N-body problem that characterizes the process by which a many-particle system evolves toward local thermodynamic equilibrium through cumulative binary collisions, distinguished from collisionless relaxation by its dependence on direct particle interactions to redistribute energy and momentum.
