By treating them statistically he was able to formulate (1866), independently of Ludwig Boltzmann, the Maxwell -
Boltzmann kinetic theory of gases.

Boltzmann's equation [which forms the basis of
kinetic theory] is very rich in ideas and at the same time it's a real equation that engineers use.
The
kinetic theory of gases fully explains the 33C Poisson, Maxwell, Clausius, Carnot,
Boltzmann, Feynman, US Std Atmosphere, HS greenhouse eqn.

kinetic theory with a generalised Maxwell -
Boltzmann distribution of molecular
kinetic energies.
