Existence and stability of equilibrium solutions of the Vlasov equation with a modified gravitational potential
T. V. Sal'nikova Lomonosov Moscow State University, Moscow, Russia
Abstract:
We consider a system of mutually gravitating particles with possible collisions, which is modeled by supplementing the gravitational potential with the potential of repulsive forces similar to Lennard-Jones intermolecular forces. For an infinite number of particles, the probability density function is determined by the Vlasov kinetic equation with a modified gravitational potential. The existence of a large class of nonlinearly stable equilibrium solutions of this equation is proved using the energy–Casimir method.
Keywords:
energy–Casimir method, nonlinear stability, Lennard-Jones type potential.
