Electrostatic structures have been observed in many regions of space plasmas, including the solar wind, the magnetosphere, the auroral acceleration region. One possible theoretical description of some of these structures is the concept of…
A new model, inspired by the structure of galactic disks, for three-dimensional Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal (BGK) modes in a plasma with a uniform finite background magnetic field is presented. These modes are exact nonlinear solutions of the…
We present two dimensional (2D) particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations of 2D Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal (BGK) modes, which are exact nonlinear steady-state solutions of the Vlasov-Poisson equations, on a 2D plane perpendicular to a background…
In this paper, we present three-dimensional (3D) Particle-In-Cell (PIC) simulations to study the stability of 2D Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal (BGK) modes in a magnetized plasma with a finite background magnetic field. The simulations were…
Nonlinear electron kinetic structures are regularly observed in space and experimental magnetized plasmas, called electron phase-space holes (EHs). The existence of EHs is conditioned and varies according to the ambient magnetic field and…
Nonlinear stationary structures formed in a cold plasma with immobile ions in the presence of a relativistic electron current beam have been investigated analytically in the collisionless limit. These are cold plasma version of the…
Landau damping and Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal (BGK) modes are among the most fundamental concepts in plasma physics. While the former describes the surprising damping of linear plasma waves in a collisionless plasma, the latter describes…
A one-dimensional, collisionless plasma given by the Vlasov-Poisson system is considered and the stability properties of periodic steady state solutions known as Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal (BGK) waves are investigated. Sufficient conditions…
We investigate the Two-Stream Instability in a strongly coupled plasma using classical molecular dynamics simulations with long-range Coulomb interactions between particles. The nonlinear evolution of the instability is identified by the…
Bernstein-Kruskal-Greene (or BGK) modes are ubiquitous nonlinear solutions for the 1D electrostatic Vlasov equation, with the particle distribution function $f$ given as a function of the particle energy. Here, we consider other solutions…
An unstable one-dimensional Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal (BGK) mode has been studied through high-precision numerical simulations. The initial turbulent, periodic equilibrium state is obtained by solving a Vlasov-Poisson system for initially…
We consider space-periodic and inhomogeneous steady states of the one-dimensional electrostatic Vlasov-Poisson system, known as the Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal (BGK) waves. We prove that there exists a large class of fixed background ion…
Long range frequency chirping of Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal modes, whose existence is determined by the fast particles, is investigated in cases where these particles do not move freely and their motion is bounded to restricted orbits. An…
We derive analytic dispersion relations for cold, orbitally constrained systems governed by the Vlasov equation. For magnetized plasmas, we obtain the first explicit relation for two-dimensional anisotropic BGK modes with finite magnetic…
The 1D Vlasov-Poisson system is the simplest kinetic model for describing an electrostatic collisonless plasma, and the BGK waves are its famous exact steady solutions. They play an important role on the long time dynamics of a…
We present a one-dimensional (1-D) model composed of aligned, electrostatically interacting charged disks, conceived in order to address in a computable model the validity of the Bogoliubov assumption on the decay of particle correlations…
Isolated electrostatic structures are observed throughout much of the 4 Re by 19.6 Re Cluster orbit. These structures are observed in the Wideband plasma wave instrument's waveform data as bipolar and tripolar pulses. These structures are…
A nonlinear Langmuir wave in the kinetic regime $k\lambda_D\gtrsim0.2$ may have a filamentation instability, where $k$ is the wavenumber and $\lambda_D$ is the Debye length. The nonlinear stage of that instability develops into the…
We consider a set of electrostatic problems relevant for determining the real-space structure and the ground-state energy of a two-dimensional electron liquid subject to smooth external potentials. Three fundamental geometries are…
Astrophysical plasmas in the surrounding of compact objects and subject to intense gravitational and electromagnetic fields are believed to give rise to relativistic regimes. Theoretical and observational evidence suggest that magnetized…
