Time-Domain Benchmark Solutions for Bernstein Waves
M. Pelkner, K. Hallatschek
In previous work, we introduced a semi-analytical method for computing time-domain solutions of linearized Vlasov problems. Rather than representing the plasma response as a sum of…

Towards hybrid kinetic/drift-kinetic simulations in 6d Vlasov codes
M. Pelkner, K. Hallatschek, M. Raeth
Simulating fully kinetic, two-species plasmas is computationally challenging due to the stiff multiscale dynamics of electrons and ions. While enforcing a quasi-neutral time evolut…

A New Approach to Compute Linear Landau Damping
M. Pelkner, K. Hallatschek, M. Raeth
We present a semi-analytical method for calculating exact time-domain solutions to linear Landau-damping problems. Unlike traditional residue-based approaches, our framework avoids…
