Abstract
Abstract Using particle methods to solve the Boltzmann equation for rarefied gases numerically in realistic streaming problems, huge differences in the total number of particles per cell arise. In order to overcome the resulting numerical difficulties, the application of a weighted particle concept is well-suited. The underlying idea is to use different particle masses in different cells depending on the macroscopic density of the gas. Discrepancy estimates and numerical results are given.
