 Collisionless effusion (source code)

= Collisionless effusion

During <collisionless effusion>, selective loss changes the distribution of surviving particle velocities without collision-driven relaxation to a new <Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution>. The loss law depends on flight paths and on the wall-reflection rule. Speed-dependent depletion and, for specular walls, directional structure can remain.
