We develop a conservative phase-space grid-adaptivity strategy for the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation in a planar geometry. The velocity-space grid is normalized to the thermal speed and shifted by the bulk-fluid velocity. The…
This study presents the Fourier-Gegenbauer Integral-Galerkin (FGIG) method, a novel and efficient numerical framework for solving the one-dimensional advection-diffusion equation with periodic boundary conditions. The FGIG method uniquely…
A numerical method is proposed to solve the full-Eulerian time-dependent Vlasov-Poisson system in high dimension. The algorithm relies on the construction of a tensor decomposition of the solution whose rank is adapted at each time step.…
A general high-order fully explicit scheme based on projective integration methods is here presented to solve systems of degenerate parabolic equations in general dimensions. The method is based on a BGK approximation of the…
In this study, we present an optimal implicit algorithm specifically designed to accurately solve the multi-species nonlinear 0D-2V axisymmetric Fokker-Planck-Rosenbluth (FPR) collision equation while preserving mass, momentum, and energy.…
We investigate the global well-posedness of the ionic Vlasov-Poisson-Boltzmann system which models the evolution of dilute collisional ions. This system distinguishes the electronic Vlasov-Poisson-Boltzmann system via an additional…
We consider a 1D-2V Vlasov-Fokker-Planck multi-species ionic description coupled to fluid electrons. We address temporal stiffness with implicit time stepping, suitably preconditioned. To address temperature disparity in time and space, we…
In this paper we present a new ultra efficient numerical method for solving kinetic equations. In this preliminary work, we present the scheme in the case of the BGK relaxation operator. The scheme, being based on a splitting technique…
We design a variational asymptotic preserving scheme for the Vlasov-Poisson-Fokker-Planck system with the high field scaling, which describes the Brownian motion of a large system of particles in a surrounding bath. Our scheme builds on an…
We propose a new numerical technique for following the evolution of a self-gravitating collisionless system in general relativity. Matter is modeled as a scalar field obeying the coupled Klein-Gordon and Einstein equations. A phase space…
Several different approaches are proposed for solving fully implicit discretizations of a simplified Boltzmann-Poisson system with a linear relaxation-type collision kernel. This system models the evolution of free electrons in…
A fully kinetic Vlasov simulation of the Geospace Environment Modeling (GEM) Magnetic Reconnection Challenge is presented. Good agreement is found with previous kinetic simulations using particle in cell (PIC) codes, confirming both the PIC…
We study Landau damping in the 1+1D Vlasov-Poisson system using a Fourier-Hermite spectral representation. We describe the propagation of free energy in phase space using forwards and backwards propagating Hermite modes recently developed…
Upon breaking the integrability, the equations of generalized hydrodynamics (GHD) are supplemented by a Boltzmann collision term. Such terms are typically complicated and stem from a perturbative treatment of integrability-breaking terms in…
A fully variational, unstructured, electromagnetic particle-in-cell integrator is developed for integration of the Vlasov-Maxwell equations. Using the formalism of Discrete Exterior Calculus, the field solver, interpolation scheme and…
Ideal gases can be modeled by the Boltzmann equation from statistical physics. Instead of trying to track the position and velocity of a large number of gas molecules, it is possible to describe the particles with a particle distribution…
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)…
The Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) single-relaxation-time collision model for the Boltzmann equation serves as the foundation of the lattice BGK (LBGK) method developed in recent years. The description of the collision as a uniform relaxation…
This paper investigates the energy fluxes for the 6D kinetic Vlasov system. We introduce a novel method for calculating particle and energy flows within this framework which allows for the determination of energy and particle fluxes, as…
A discontinuous Galerkin method for approximating the Vlasov-Poisson system of equations describing the time evolution of a collisionless plasma is proposed. The method is mass conservative and, in the case that piecewise constant functions…
