Kinetic invariant domains and relaxation limit from a BGK model to isentropic gas dynamics

We obtain rigorously the correspondence between kinetic and macroscopic invariant domains for a vector kinetic BGK system considered in a previous paper of the authors. We establish the convergence, as the relaxation parameter tends to 0, to weak entropy solutions of isentropic gas dynamics equations.
