Transport phenomena in a plasma quasilinear theory

  • Enos D'Ambrogio

Abstract

Making use of a recently developed quasi-linear formulation of 1D Vlasov equation, we derive the balance relations for the space-averaged distribution function and spectral power density. The validity-range in the short-time behaviour as well as in the time asymptotic limit is discussed. The formalism is perturbative but non-markovian in character, as it formally generalizes, and in the appropriate limit reproduces, Pocobelli's kinetic theory.
