On the Linearized Balescu-lenard Equation
نویسنده
چکیده
Abstract. The Balescu-Lenard equation from plasma physics is widely considered to include a highly accurate correction to Landau’s fundamental collision operator. Yet so far it has seen very little mathematical study. We perform an extensive linearized analysis of this equation, which includes determining the asymptotic behavior of the new components of the linearized operator and establishing time decay rates for the linearized equation.

Color Dynamics In Phase Space: The Balescu-Lenard-Vlasov Approach
We propose to use the Balescu-Lenard-Vlasov (BLV) equation to describe relativistic heavy ion collisions. We use an inter-quark Richardson’s potential consistent with the indications of Lattice QCD calculations. The color degrees of freedom are explicitly taken into account. We explicitly demonstrate that the Vlasov approach alone is insufficient in the hadronization region. In order to overcom...

Hegna Department of Engineering Physics, University of Wisconsin-Madison, 1500 Engineering Drive, Madison, WI 53706-1609, USA (Dated: September 16, 2008) Abstract A generalization of the Lenard-Balescu equation is derived that includes wave-particle scattering by collective instabilities in finite space-time domain plasmas. It is shown that wave-particle ...
متن کاملAdaptive polynomial expansion method for the numerical solution of the Lenard-Balescu equation
Plasma [1] is a state of matter in which electrons are no longer bound to their atomic nuclei. This ionization can be partial, in which atoms may retain some of their electrons, or total, in which all electrons are stripped. The mathematical description of plasmas is a very important area of research, which has impact across a broad range of physical applications, such as stellar astrophysics, ...
متن کاملKinetic Equations I. Information-Theoretical Derivation of a General Equation of Motion for the One-Particle Distribution Function
In order to derive kinetic equations one starts from the Liouville-equation, which can be transformed into the BBGKY-hierarchy by reduction. Breaking off the hierarchy1-3 or evaluation of the hierarchy by B O G O L J U B O V ' S synchronization assumption 4 then leads to closed, explicitly time-independent equations of motion for the one-particle distribution function, which are called kinetic ...
متن کاملConnection between the Dielectric and the Ballistic Treatment of Collisional Absorption
In this work two important models of treating collisional absorption in a laser driven plasma are compared, the dielectric and the ballistic model. We will see that there exists a remarkable connection between these basic approaches which could give a hint how to overcome the inherent limitations. The approximations made in the models are not identical and lead to different advantages and disad...
