A boundary matching micro/macro decomposition for kinetic equations
Mohammed Lemou, Florian Méhats
We introduce a new micro/macro decomposition of collisional kinetic equations which naturally incorporates the exact space boundary conditions. The idea is to write the distributio…
Orbital stability of spherical galactic models
Mohammed Lemou, Florian Mehats, Pierre Raphael
We consider the three dimensional gravitational Vlasov Poisson system which is a canonical model in astrophysics to describe the dynamics of galactic clusters. A well known conject…
Stable ground states and self-similar blow-up solutions for the gravitational Vlasov-Manev system
Mohammed Lemou, Florian Méhats, Cyril Rigault
In this work, we study the orbital stability of steady states and the existence of blow-up self-similar solutions to the so-called Vlasov-Manev (VM) system. This system is a kineti…
Escape of stars from gravitational clusters in the Chandrasekhar model
Mohammed Lemou, Pierre-Henri Chavanis
We study the evaporation of stars from globular clusters using the simplified Chandrasekhar model. This is an analytically tractable model giving reasonable agreement with more sop…
