Consistent Algorithms Marching Along Characteristics for the Numerical Solution of the Boltzmann Equation

We introduce algorithms marching over a polygonal mesh with elements consistent with the propagation directions of the particle (radiation) flux. The decision for adopting this kind of mesh to solve the one-speed Boltzmann transport equation is due to characteristics of the domain of the transport o...
