Plasma Physics

We obtained several results of asymptotic analysis concerning either kinetic or macroscopic models for charge transport, see [45] , [44] and [52] (and we also refer to the related work [53] ). Through the collaboration with Thales we proposed in [3] a method to compute numerically the boundary conditions for the Euler system derived from the BGK equation in the hydrodynamic limit. In particular this method is based on an analysis of boundary layers. In [7] we extend these techniques to the coupled Euler Poisson system.
