## Abstract    Full Text(HTML)    Figure/Table

We discuss the problem of the approximation of the solutions of the stationary Boltzmann equation, driven by diffuse boundary conditions at varying temperature, by means of stochastic particle systems. In particular we extend a previous results, by substituting the hypothesis of a cutoff on small and large velocities with the presence of an external field.
