A new splitting is proposed for solving the Vlasov-Maxwell system. This splitting is based on a decomposition of the Hamiltonian of the Vlasov-Maxwell system and allows for the construction of arbitrary high order methods by composition…
The time evolution of a collisionless plasma is modeled by the relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell system which couples the Vlasov equation (the transport equation) with the Maxwell equations of electrodynamics. We consider the case that the plasma…
Energy conserving particle-in-cell schemes are constructed for a class of reduced relativistic Vlasov--Maxwell equations of laser-plasma interaction. Discrete Poisson equation is also satisfied by the numerical solution. Specifically,…
The super simple Vlasov (ssV) code was developed to study instabilities, turbulence, and reconnection in weakly magnetized plasmas, such as the solar wind in the dissipation range and the edge of fusion plasmas. The ssV code overcomes the…
High-intensity laser plasma interactions create complex computational problems because they involve both fluid and kinetic regimes, which need models that maintain physical precision while keeping computational speed. The research…
This article is concerned with the kinetic modeling, by means of the Vlasov equation, of charged particles under the influence of a strong external electromagnetic field, i.e. when epsilon^2, the dimensionless cyclotron period, tends to…

We present an explicit temporal discretization of particle-in-cell schemes for the Vlasov equation that results in exact energy conservation when combined with an appropriate spatial discretization. The scheme is inspired by a simple,…
Many problems encountered in plasma physics require a description by kinetic equations, which are posed in an up to six-dimensional phase space. A direct discretization of this phase space, often called the Eulerian approach, has many…
Electromagnetic waves are an inherent part of all plasmas -- laboratory fusion plasmas or astrophysical plasmas. The conventional methods for studying properties of electromagnetic waves rely on discretization of Maxwell equations suitable…
The motion of a collisionless plasma - a high-temperature, low-density, ionized gas - is described by the Vlasov-Maxwell system. In the presence of large velocities, relativistic corrections are meaningful, and when symmetry of the particle…
