Eulerian electrostatic kinetic simulations of unmagnetized plasmas (kinetic electrons and motionless protons) with high-frequency equilibrium perturbations have been employed to investigate the phase space free energy transfer across…
A class of simple kinetic systems is considered, described by the 1D Vlasov-Landau equation with Poisson or Boltzmann electrostatic response and an energy source. Assuming a stochastic electric field, a solvable model is constructed for the…
We describe a spectral method for the numerical solution of the Vlasov-Poisson system where the velocity space is decomposed by means of an Hermite basis, and the configuration space is discretized via a Fourier decomposition. The novelty…
The velocity-space resolution required to accurately simulate kinetic phenomena in the 1D-1V Vlasov--Poisson system is generally not known a priori. In this work, we determine the upper bound on the resolution requirement for linear and…
In this work, we apply a semi-Lagrangian spectral method for the Vlasov-Poisson system, previously designed for periodic Fourier discretizations, by implementing Legendre polynomials and Hermite functions in the approximation of the…
Magnetic confinement fusion reactors suffer severely from heat and particle losses through turbulent transport, which has inspired the construction of ever larger and more expensive reactors. Numerical simulations are vital to their design…
In this paper, we establish the large time asymptotic behavior of solutions to the linearized Vlasov-Poisson system near general spatially homogenous equilibria $\mu(\frac12|v|^2)$ with connected support on the torus $\mathbb{T}^3_x \times…
We study the dynamics of perturbations around an inhomogeneous stationary state of the Vlasov-HMF (Hamiltonian Mean-Field) model, satisfying a linearized stability criterion (Penrose criterion). We consider solutions of the linearized…
We propose a numerical method for kinetic plasma simulation in which the phase-space distribution function is represented by a low-rank tensor network with an adaptive level of compression. The Vlasov-Poisson system is advanced using Strang…
We propose an adaptive Hermite spectral method for the Vlasov-Poisson system based on a recently developed frequency indicator that measures the contribution of the high-order expansion coefficients. Precisely, the symmetrically weighted…
We propose an Hermite spectral method for the Fokker-Planck-Landau (FPL) equation. Both the distribution functions and the collision terms are approximated by series expansions of the Hermite functions. To handle the complexity of the…
We propose a spectral method for the 1D-1V Vlasov-Poisson system where the discretization in velocity space is based on asymmetrically-weighted Hermite functions, dynamically adapted via a scaling $\alpha$ and shifting $u$ of the velocity…
This paper investigates nonlinear Landau damping in the 3D Vlasov-Poisson (VP) system. We study the asymptotic stability of the Poisson equilibrium $\mu(v)=\frac{1}{\pi^2(1+|v|^2)^2}$ under small perturbations. Building on the foundational…
The current paradigm for understanding galaxy formation in the universe depends on the existence of self-gravitating collisionless dark matter. Modeling such dark matter systems has been a major focus of astrophysicists, with much of that…
We study a class of spatial discretizations for the Vlasov-Poisson system written as an hyperbolic system using Hermite polynomials. In particular, we focus on spectral methods and discontinuous Galerkin approximations. To obtain L 2…
In this note we adopt an approach by Grenier, Nguyen and Rodnianski in \cite{GNR} for studying the nonlinear Landau damping of the two-species Vlasov-Poisson system in the phase space $\mathbb{T}^d_x \times \mathbb{R}^d_v$ with the…
A one-dimensional Vlasov-Poisson system is considered to elucidate how the information entropies of the probability distribution functions of the electron position and velocity variables evolve in the Landau damping process. Considering 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…
We investigate the asymptotic behavior of a perturbation around a spatially non homogeneous stable stationary state of a one-dimensional Vlasov equation. Under general hypotheses, after transient exponential Landau damping, a perturbation…
We study the linearized Vlasov equations and the linearized Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equations in the weakly collisional limit in a uniform magnetic field. In both cases, we consider periodic confinement and Maxwellian (or close to Maxwellian)…
