Strongly inelastic granular gases
  The expansion of the velocity distribution function for the homogeneous cooling state (HCS) in a Sonine polynomial series around a Maxwellian is shown to be divergent, though Borel resummable. A convergent expansion for the HCS has been devised and employed to obtain the HCS velocity distribution function and (using it) the linear transport coefficients for a three dimensional monodisperse granular gas of smooth inelastic spheres, for all physical values of the coefficient of normal restitution. The results are in very good agreement with findings of DSMC simulations.
