In this study, the Vlasov-Poisson equation with or without collision term for plasma is solved by the unified gas kinetic scheme (UGKS). The Vlasov equation is a differential equation describing time evolution of the distribution function…
We prove the convergence of a spectral discretization of the Vlasov-Poisson system. The velocity term of the Vlasov equation is discretized using either Hermite functions on the infinite domain or Legendre polynomials on a bounded domain.…
A multispecies, collisionless plasma is modeled by the Vlasov-Poisson system. Assuming that the electric field decays with sufficient rapidity as $t \to\infty$, we show that the velocity characteristics and spatial averages of the particle…
Sparse-grid methods have recently gained interest in reducing the computational cost of solving high-dimensional kinetic equations. In this paper, we construct adaptive and hybrid sparse-grid methods for the Vlasov-Poisson-Lenard-Bernstein…
The Vlasov-Poisson equations describe the evolution of a collisionless plasma, represented through a probability density function (PDF) that self-interacts via an electrostatic force. One of the main difficulties in numerically solving this…
In this paper, we study both convergence and bounded variation properties of a new fully discrete conservative Lagrangian--Eulerian scheme to the entropy solution in the sense of Kruzhkov (scalar case) by using a weak asymptotic analysis.…
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…
In collisionless and weakly collisional plasmas, the particle distribution function is a rich tapestry of the underlying physics. However, actually leveraging the particle distribution function to understand the dynamics of a weakly…
An important physical model describing the dynamics of dilute weakly ionized plasmas in the collisional kinetic theory is the Vlasov-Poisson-Boltzmann system for which the plasma responds strongly to the self-consistent electrostatic force.…
This short note presents an extension of the hybrid, model-adaptation method introduced in [T.~Laidin, \textit{arXiv 2202.03696}, 2022] for linear collisional kinetic equations in a diffusive scaling to the nonlinear mean-field…
The problem of collisions in a plasma is a wide subject with a huge historical literature. In fact, the description of realistic plasmas is a tough problem to attach, both from the theoretical and the numerical point of view, and which…
This work aims to provide a comprehensive and unified numerical analysis for non linear system of parabolic variational inequalities (PVIs) subject to Dirichlet boundary condition. This analysis enables us to establish an existence of the…
Fusion energy offers the potential for the generation of clean, safe, and nearly inexhaustible energy. While notable progress has been made in recent years, significant challenges persist in achieving net energy gain. Improving plasma…
The Vlasov equation is a kinetic model describing the evolution of charged particles, and is coupled with Poisson's equation, which rules the evolution of the self-consistent electric field. In this paper, we introduce a new class of…
The dynamics of collisionless plasmas can be modelled by the Vlasov-Maxwell system of equations. An Eulerian approach is needed to accurately describe processes that are governed by high energy tails in the distribution function, but is of…
We consider spherically symmetric, asymptotically flat space-times with a collisionless gas as matter model. Many properties of the resulting Vlasov-Einstein system are not yet accessible by purely analytical means. We present a discretized…
The Vlasov-Poisson systems of equations (VP) describes the evolution of a distribution of collisionless particles under the effect of a collective-field potential. VP is at the basis of the study of the gravitational instability of…
In molecular dynamics, penalized overdamped Langevin dynamics are used to model the motion of a set of particles that follow constraints up to a parameter $\varepsilon$. The most used schemes for simulating these dynamics are the Euler…
This work deals with the numerical solution of the Vlasov equation. This equation gives a kinetic description of the evolution of a plasma, and is coupled with Poisson's equation for the computation of the self-consistent electric field.…
The immersed boundary method is an approach to fluid-structure interaction that uses a Lagrangian description of the structural deformations, stresses, and forces along with an Eulerian description of the momentum, viscosity, and…
