From Vlasov-Poisson and Vlasov-Poisson-Fokker-Planck Systems to Incompressible Euler Equations: the case with finite charge

Abstract

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 bounded domain, the shape of which is determined by the external confining potential. The analysis extends to the situation where the limiting density is non-homogeneous and where the Euler equation is replaced by the Lake Equation, also called Anelastic Equation.Comment: 39 pages, 3 figure
