. In this note we study Boltzmann’s collision kernel for inverse power law interactions U s ( r ) = 1 /r s − 1 for s > 2 in dimension d = 3. We prove the limit of the non-cutoff kernel to the hard-sphere kernel and give pre- cise asymptotic formulas of the singular layer near θ (cid:39) 0 in the limit s → ∞ . Consequently, we show that solutions to the homogeneous Boltzmann equation converge to the respective solutions.
