Abstract
ritorna
The Vlasov equation is the fundamental mathematical model for space and laboratory plasmas characterized by a typical collision time scale much longer than the dynamics time scale. As a consequence, these plasmas can be considered in first approximation as collisionless and the dynamics as Hamiltonian. As an example, in the solar wind the mean free path is of the order of the dimension of the system (i.e. one astronomical unity) and in fact non Maxwellian distribution functions are often observed by satellites. In general, at "small" length scales (and high frequencies) the collisionless Vlasov mean field theory is the physical model adopted for the understanding of the processes in which collisions are still neglected, but kinetic effects now play a key role in the plasma dynamics. Such kinetic effects are often crucial to transfer ordered (large scale) energy on small-scale fluctuations which, reacting on the particles, push then the system toward an "isotropisation". This process can somewhat replace the role of collisions. Furthermore, one of the major surprises of high-resolution space measurements has been the observation of electrostatic coherent structures on the Debye length scale with corresponding non-Maxwellian distribution functions. These structures have been observed in the aurora terrestrial regions and successively also in the solar wind, even in the "more quiet" regions and can be modeled by means of the Vlasov equation. Applications of the Vlasov equation for the study of space plasmas processes, from coherent structure formation to wave-wave or wave-particle coupling, to plasma turbulence will be discussed.
