Abstract

The time evolution of a collisionless plasma is studied in the case when the Viasov density ƒ is a function of the time, one space variable and two velocity variables. The electromagnetic fields E, B also have a special structure, and the magnetic field B is non‐trivial. It is shown that smooth, consistent initial values generate a uniquc smooth global solution.

The relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell-Fokker-Planck system is used in modelling distribution of charged particles in plasma. It consists of a transport equation coupled with the Maxwell system. The diffusion term in the equation models the collisions among particles, whereas the viscosity term signifies t

## Communicated by H. Neunzert We study stationary solutions of the relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell system of plasma physics which have a special form introduced (in the classical setting) by Rudykh, Sidorov and Sinitsy and establish their existence under suitable assumptions on the ansatz functions.

## Abstract A collisionless plasma is modelled by the Vlasov–Poisson system in one dimension. We consider the situation in which mobile negative ions balance a fixed background of positive charge, which is independent of space and time, as ∣__x__∣ → ∞. Thus, the total positive charge and the total
