Poisson-Vlasov in a strong magnetic field: A stochastic solution approach
نویسنده
چکیده
Stochastic solutions are obtained for the Maxwell-Vlasov equation in the approximation where magnetic field fluctuations are neglected and the electrostatic potential is used to compute the electric field. This is a reasonable approximation for plasmas in a strong external magnetic field. Both Fourier and configuration space solutions are constructed. PACS: 52.25Dg, 02.50Ey

Homogenization of the Vlasov Equation and of the Vlasov - Poisson System with a Strong External Magnetic Field
Abstract: Motivated by the difficulty arising in the numerical simulation of the movement of charged particles in presence of a large external magnetic field, which adds an additional time scale and thus imposes to use a much smaller time step, we perform in this paper a homogenization of the Vlasov equation and the Vlasov-Poisson system which yield approximate equations describing the mean beh...
متن کاملMultiscale Particle-in-Cell methods and comparisons for the long-time two-dimensional Vlasov-Poisson equation with strong magnetic field
We applied different kinds of multiscale methods to numerically study the long-time Vlasov-Poisson equation with a strong magnetic field. The multiscale methods include an asymptotic preserving Runge-Kutta scheme, an exponential time discretization scheme, stroboscopic averaging method and a uniformly accurate two-scale formulation. We briefly review these methods and then adapt them to solve t...

متن کاملThe Vlasov-Poisson system with strong external magnetic field. Finite Larmor radius regime
We study here the finite Larmor radius regime for the Vlasov-Poisson equations with strong external magnetic field. The derivation of the limit model follows by formal expansion in power series with respect to a small parameter. If we replace the particle distribution by the center distribution of the Larmor circles the limit of these densities satisfies a transport equation, whose velocity is ...
متن کاملFrom Vlasov–Poisson and Vlasov–Poisson–Fokker–Planck Systems to Incompressible Euler Equations: the case with finite charge
We study the asymptotic regime of strong electric fields that leads from the Vlasov–Poisson system to the Incompressible Euler equations. We also deal with the Vlasov–Poisson–Fokker– Planck system which induces dissipative effects. The originality consists in considering a situation with a finite total charge confined by a strong external field. In turn, the limiting equation is set in a bounde...
