First sentence: The study of the relation of the two systems describing the behavior of a gas, the fluid-dynamic system and the Boltzmann system, has a long history (Boltzmann [1896-98], Hubert [1900, 1912], Chapman [1916], Enskog [1917], Grad [1949, 1963a, 19631), 1969], Chapman &amp; Cowling [1952], Darrozes [1969], Sone [1969, 1971, 1991a], Nishida [1978], Ukai &amp; Asano [1983], Bardos.
