In this paper we present a spectral collocation method for the fast evaluation of the Landau collision operator for plasma physics, which allows us to obtain spectrally accurate numerical solutions. The method is inspired by the seminal…

This paper proposes a novel numerical integrator for modeling multispecies Coulomb collisions in kinetic plasmas. The proposed scheme provides an energy-, momentum-, and positivity-preserving particle discretization of the nonlinear Landau…

We present a data-driven approach for constructing generalized collisional kinetic models for inhomogeneous plasmas in one-dimensional physical space and three-dimensional velocity space (1D-3V). The collision operator is directly learned…

We introduce a data-driven approach to learn a generalized kinetic collision operator directly from molecular dynamics. Unlike the conventional (e.g., Landau) models, the present operator takes an anisotropic form that accounts for a second…

Collisional processes are critical in the understanding of non-Maxwellian plasmas. The Landau form of the Fokker-Planck equation is the gold standard for modeling collisions in most plasmas, however O(N^2) work complexity inhibits its…

The linearized model collision operator for multiple species plasmas given by H. Sugama, T.-H. Watanabe, and M. Nunami [Phys.\ Plasmas {\bf 16}, 112503 (2009)] is improved to be properly applicable up to the highly collisional regime. The…

We introduce a fast Fourier spectral method for the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation with non-cutoff collision kernels. Such kernels contain non-integrable singularity in the deviation angle which arise in a wide range of…

We develop novel asymptotic-preserving (AP) deterministic particle methods for collisional plasma models, including both Landau--Fokker--Planck and Dougherty collision operators, under hydrodynamic scaling. Our schemes treat the non-stiff…

When applying Hamiltonian operator splitting methods for the time integration of multi-species Vlasov-Maxwell-Landau systems, the reliable and efficient numerical approximation of the Landau equation represents a fundamental component of…

We propose a novel deterministic particle method to numerically approximate the Landau equation for plasmas. Based on a new variational formulation in terms of gradient flows of the Landau equation, we regularize the collision operator to…

This paper contributes new insights into discretizing Coulomb collisions in kinetic plasma models. Building on the previous works [Carrillo et al. J. Comp. Phys. X 7:100066 (2020), Hirvijoki and Burby Phys. Plasmas 27(8):082307 (2020)], I…

Collisional and stochastic wave-particle dynamics in plasmas far from equilibrium are complex, temporally evolving, stochastic processes which are challenging to model. In this work, we extend previous methods coupling differentiable…

The Landau collision integral is often considered the gold standard in the context of kinetic plasma simulation due to its conservative properties, despite challenges involved in its discretization. The primary challenge when implementing…

We have developed a deterministic conservative solver for the inhomogeneous Fokker-Planck-Landau equation coupled with the Poisson equation, which is a {classical mean-field} primary model for collisional plasmas. Two subproblems, i.e. the…

The nonlocal Cahn-Hilliard equation provides a natural extension of the classical model for phase separation by incorporating long-range interactions through a singular convolution kernel. While this formulation admits a rich existence and…

Inspired by the gradient flow viewpoint of the Landau equation and the corresponding dynamic formulation of the Landau metric in [arXiv:2007.08591], we develop a novel implicit particle method for the Landau equation in the framework of the…

We propose a methodology to infer collision operators from phase space data of plasma dynamics. Our approach combines a differentiable kinetic simulator, whose core component in this work is a differentiable Fokker-Planck solver, with a…

The multispecies Landau collision operator describes the two-particle, small scattering angle or grazing collisions in a plasma made up of different species of particles such as electrons and ions. Recently, a structure preserving…

We propose a simple fast spectral method for the Boltzmann collision operator with general collision kernels. In contrast to the direct spectral method \cite{PR00, GT09} which requires $O(N^6)$ memory to store precomputed weights and has…

A three species one-dimensional kinetic model is presented for a spatially homogeneous weakly ionized plasma subjected to the action of a time varying electric field. Planar geometry is assumed, which means that the plasma dynamics evolves…
