Landau damping
This course was taught in the summer of 2010 in the Centre International des Rencontres Mathématiques as part of a program on mathematical plasma physics related to the ITER project; it constitutes an introduction to the Landau damping phenomenon in the linearized and perturbative nonlinear regimes, following the recent work [78] by Mouhot & Villani.
متن کاملOn Landau Damping
Going beyond the linearized study has been a longstanding problem in the theory of Landau damping. In this paper we establish exponential Landau damping in analytic regularity. The damping phenomenon is reinterpreted in terms of transfer of regularity between kinetic and spatial variables, rather than exchanges of energy; phase mixing is the driving mechanism. The analysis involves new families...
متن کاملLandau Damping and Entropy
It is shown that the well-known LANDAu-damping entropy paradox can be resolved by considering a macroscopic entropy as defined by CLAUSIUS instead of the microscopic entropy defined by BOLTZMANN. Although both entropy definitions are identical for equilibrium configurations, the same in general is not true for non-equilibrium configurations. To extend the entropy definition of CLAUSIUS to non-e...
متن کاملStability Diagrams for Landau Damping
Coherent modes which are present when there is no incoherent tune spread may be absent when such a spread exists. Such modes are “Landau damped.” There is instead an incoherent spectrum, a continuum of an infinite number of frequencies, which will decohere (filament), thus not leading to collective instabilities. A stability diagram indicates when Landau damping will be effective. It divides th...
متن کاملOn the nature of “collisionless” Landau damping
The essential role of collisions in Landau damping is illustrated with heuristic but quantitatively accurate arguments. They show that above a critical (and very weak) collisionality the linearization of the Vlasov equation for the perturbation and the quasilinear description of the evolution of the background distribution function are simultaneously justified, and yield a closed and internally...
