内容	A simple kinetic model, which is presumably minimum, for the phase transition of the van der Waals fluid is presented. In the model, intermolecular collisions for a dense gas has not been treated faithfully. Instead, the expected interactions as the non-ideal gas effect are confined in a self-consistent force term. Collision term plays just a role of thermal bath. Accordingly, it conserves neither momentum nor energy, even globally. It is demonstrated that (i) by a natural separation of the mean-field self-consistent potential, the potential for the non-ideal gas effect is determined from the equation of state for the van der Waals fluid, with the aid of the balance equation of momentum, (ii) a functional which monotonically decreases in time is identified by the H theorem and is found to have a close relation to the Helmholtz free energy in thermodynamics, and (iii) the Cahn--Hilliard-type equation is obtained in the continuum limit of the present kinetic model. Numerical simulations have also been carried out for both the Cahn--Hilliard-type equation and the kinetic equation to demonstrate the occurrence of phase transition from unstable uniform equilibrium states. The present talk is based on the references below. [1] S. Takata and T. Noguchi, J. Stat. Phys., Vol. 172, 880 (2018) [2] S. Takata, T. Matsumoto, A. Hirahara, and M. Hattori, arxiv:1807.04630
