Abstract
StrongL 1-convergence towards a stationary solution when time tends to infinity is established for the solutions of the time-dependent nonlinear Boltzmann equation in a bounded domain Ω ⊂ ℝ3 with constant temperature on the boundary. The collisionless case is first investigated in the varying temperature case.
