On Hyperbolicity of 13-Moment System

We point out that the thermodynamic equilibrium is not an interior point of the hyperbolicity region of Grad's 13-moment system. With a compact expansion of the phase density, which is compacter than Grad's expansion, we derived a modified 13-moment system. The new 13-moment system admits the thermodynamic equilibrium as an interior point of its hyperbolicity region. We deduce a concise criterion to ensure the hyperbolicity, thus the hyperbolicity region can be quantitatively depicted.
