Thermodynamic blocking in self-gravitating systems
Barnabás Deme, Jean-Baptiste Fouvry
Building upon a thermodynamic formalism, we show that self-gravitating systems in hydrostatic equilibrium with a uniform density are maximal entropy states when submitted to pertur…
Vector Resonant Relaxation and Statistical Closure Theory. II. One-loop Closure
Sofia Flores, Jean-Baptiste Fouvry
We use stellar dynamics as a testbed for statistical closure theory. We focus on the process of "Vector Resonant Relaxation," a long-range, non-linear, and correlated relaxation me…
Kinetic theory of two-dimensional point vortices at order and
Jean-Baptiste Fouvry, Pierre-Henri Chavanis
We investigate the long-term relaxation of a distribution of point vortices in two-dimensional hydrodynamics. To focus on the regime of weak collective amplification, we embed…
On the long-term evolution of razor-thin galactic discs: Balescu-Lenard prediction and perspectives
Mathieu Roule, Jean-Baptiste Fouvry, Christophe Pichon +1
In the last five decades, numerical simulations have provided invaluable insights into the evolution of galactic discs over cosmic times. As a complementary approach, developments…
