A moment method is applied to a model Boltzmann equation including an isotropic external source. The associated infinite system of first-order differential equations for the moments is solved exactly to the extent that analytical expressions for the generating function of the moments are derived. Due to a consequent application of Lie group methods the resulting functions are of the similarity form. Certain restrictions upon the shape of the source term arising from the solution strategy are discussed.
