We consider a set of bipolar Euler-Poisson equations and study two asymptotic limiting processes. The first is the zero-electron-mass limit, which formally results in a non-linear adiabatic electron system. In a second step, we analyse the…
This paper is concerned with the global-in-time convergence from bipolar Euler-Poisson system (BEP) to unipolar one (UEP) through the infinity-ion-mass limit by letting the ratio of the mass of ion $m_i$ over that of electron $m_e$ goes to…
This work establishes the relaxation limit from the bipolar Euler-Poisson system to the bipolar drift-diffusion system, for data so that the latter has a smooth solution. A relative energy identity is developed for the bipolar fluid system…

We study the quasineutral limit of the isothermal Euler-Poisson system describing a plasma made of ions and massless electrons. The analysis is achieved in a domain of $\R^3$ and thus extends former results by Cordier and Grenier [Comm.…
In this paper, we study the quasineutral limit (in other words the limit when the Debye length tends to zero) of Vlasov-Poisson like equations describing the behaviour of ions in a plasma. We consider massless electrons, with a charge…
We consider a three-dimensional kinetic model for a two species plasma consisting of electrons and ions confined by an external nonconstant magnetic field. Then we derive a kinetic-fluid model when the mass ratio $m_e/m_i$ tends to zero.…
In this paper, we consider the quasineutral limit of the Euler-Poisson equation for a clod, ion-acoustic plasma when the Debye length tends to zero. When the ion-acoustic plasma is cold, the Euler-Poisson equation is pressureless and hence…
This work is concerned with the study of singular limits for the Vlasov-Poisson system in the case of massless electrons (VPME), which is a kinetic system modelling the ions in a plasma. Our objective is threefold: first, we provide a mean…
The bipolaron are two electrons coupled to the elastic deformations of an ionic crystal. We study this system in the Fr\"{o}hlich approximation. If the Coulomb repulsion dominates, the lowest energy states are two well separated polarons.…
The motion of a continuum of matter subject to gravitational interaction is classically described by the Euler-Poisson system. Prescribing the density of matter at initial and final times, we are able to obtain weak solutions for this…
Kinetic equations of Vlasov type are in widespread use as models in plasma physics. A well known example is the Vlasov-Poisson system for collisionless, unmagnetised plasma. In these notes, we discuss recent progress on the quasineutral…
I am concerned in these lectures with the breakdown of the particle concept in strongly correlated electron matter. I first show that the standard procedure for counting particles, namely Luttinger's theorem, breaks down anytime pole-like…
Plasma is a medium filled with free electrons and positive ions. Each particle acts as a conducting fluid with a single velocity and temperature when electromagnetic fields are present. This distinction between the roles played by electrons…
The Vlasov-Poisson system for ions is a kinetic equation for dilute, unmagnetised plasma. It describes the evolution of the ions in a plasma under the assumption that the electrons are thermalized. Consequently, the Poisson coupling for the…
We consider the zero-electron-mass limit for the Navier-Stokes-Poisson system in unbounded spatial domains. Assuming smallness of the viscosity coefficient and ill-prepared initial data, we show that the asymptotic limit is represented by…

A generalization of the Euler-Plateau problem to account for the energy contribution due to twisting of the bounding loop is proposed. Euler-Lagrange equations are derived in a parameterized setting and a bifurcation analysis is performed.…
The one-dimensional Vlasov-Poisson system is considered and a particle method is developed to approximate solutions without compact support which tend to a fixed background of charge as $| x | \to \infty$. Such a system of equations can be…
