Description
Using the case study of a spatially homogeneous many-gluon system, distributed isotropically in momentum space, we will investigate more thoroughly than in the existing literature the evolution of a hot (quark-) gluon plasma from an initial state towards equilibrium. To that end we will investigate the QCD Boltzmann Equation beyond the popular soft-scattering approximation, thereby shedding light on the applicability of previous results in the field.
