The author considers small perturbations of shock wave solutions of the one-dimensional Broadwell model from discrete kinetic theory. It is shown that solutions of the corresponding initial value problem decompose naturally as \(f(x, t)= f_s(x- st-\delta)+f_\theta(x, t)+ f_\eta(x, t)+ f_e(x, t)\), where \(f_s\) is the (given) shock, \(f_\theta\) is a diffusion wave, \(f_\eta\) a linearly coupled viscous wave, and \(f_e\) an error which vanishes asymptotically as \(t\to\infty\) in the \(L^2\)-sense. The paper is a synopsis of joint work with \textit{Z. Xin} [Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 122, No. 1, 53-103 (1993; Zbl 0803.35097)]. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0869.00036].
