A Local Macroscopic Conservative Low-Rank Discontinuous Galerkin Method for the Vlasov-Poisson Equation with Dougherty-Fokker-Planck Collisions

Austin Nelson, Wei Guo, Pierson Guthrey

In this paper, we construct a low-rank, structure preserving discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method to simulate the Vlasov-Poisson (VP) system coupled with the Dougherty Fokker-Planck…
