The subject matter of this paper concerns the finite Larmor radius regime of the Vlasov-Poisson system for strongly magnetized plasmas. We appeal to gyro-average methods, and determine the explicit expressions for the velocity and acceleration fields in the limit Vlasov equation. We investigate the Hamiltonian structure of the limit model (trajectories), analyse its properties (conservations of the mass, kinetic energy, electric energy) and justify rigorously the asymptotic behavior, following the formal arguments developed in 1 .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
