On the physical meaning of the dispersion equation and its solutions for different initial and boundary conditions

Abstract lt is shown that similarly to the movement in capillaries, also in other dispersive systems, the distinction between the concentration of solute in res It is also shown how particular solutions are related by known and new transformations. Time and spatial moments of all solutions as well as changes of To make the paper more general all the considerations are performed in normal time and space variables. However, a change to dimensionless variables, g The paper deals only with solutions for infinite and semi-infinite media in the case of a conservative tracer. However, there is no doubt that the appl
