Abstract

Recently, the phenomenological description of cosmological particle production processes in terms of effective viscous pressures has attracted some attention. Using a simple creation rate model we discuss the question to what extent this approach is compatible with the kinetic theory of a relativistic gas. We find the effective viscous pressure approach to be consistent with this model for homogeneous spacetimes but not for inhomogeneous ones. © 1996 IOP Publishing Ltd.
