We obtain a natural extension of the Vlasov-Poisson system for stellar dynamics to spaces of constant Gaussian curvature $\kappa\ne 0$: the unit sphere $\mathbb S^2$, for $\kappa>0$, and the unit hyperbolic sphere $\mathbb H^2$, for…
Vlasov kinetic theory is extended by adopting an extra one particle distribution function as an additional state variable characterizing the micro-turbulence internal structure. The extended Vlasov equation keeps the reversibility, the…

In this paper, we consider the three dimensional Vlasov equation with an inhomogeneous, varying direction, strong magnetic field. Whenever the magnetic field has constant intensity, the oscillations generated by the stiff term are periodic.…
