Abstract
Following a procedure which is typical of linear (neutron) transport theory, a multigroup approach is proposed for the non-linear extended Boltzmann equation in the presence of removal, a background medium, an external source and an external force field. The relevant multigroup equations, corresponding to a discretization of the speed variable only, are derived and discussed, especially in connection with the so-called semi-discrete models recently introduced in kinetic theory.
