(i) The relatively simple Bhatnagar, Gross and Krook collision operator is replaced by the Fokker-Planck operator expressed in terms of relaxation rates (slowing down, energy exchange, etc.). (ii) The simple Lorentzian plasma model is replaced by a multi-component plasma model with realistic masses and temperatures. Copyright © Cambridge University Press 1989 Zoler D.
