# A Unified View of Transport Equations

## TL;DR

This paper presents a unified framework for understanding various transport equations using the Maximum Entropy Principle, highlighting the role of moments and constraints in deriving distribution functions.

## Contribution

It introduces a unified approach to static and conservative force transport equations based on the Maximum Entropy Principle and moment constraints.

## Key findings

- Distribution functions derived from maximum entropy principles.
- Constraint equations correspond to low-lying moments.
- Applicable to systems with conservative forces.

## Abstract

Distribution functions of many static transport equations are found using the Maximum Entropy Principle. The equations of constraint which contain the relevant dynamical information are simply the low-lying moments of the distributions. Systems subject to conservative forces have also been considered.
