Statistical mechanics of two-dimensional vortices and stellar systems
P. H. Chavanis
The formation of large-scale vortices is an intriguing phenomenon in two-dimensional turbulence. Such organization is observed in large-scale oceanic or atmospheric flows, and can…

Statistical mechanics of violent relaxation in stellar systems
P. H. Chavanis
We discuss the statistical mechanics of violent relaxation in stellar systems following the pioneering work of Lynden-Bell (1967). The solutions of the gravitational Vlasov-Poisson…

The self-gravitating Fermi gas
P. H. Chavanis
We discuss the nature of phase transitions in the self-gravitating Fermi gas at non-zero temperature. This study can be relevant for massive neutrinos in Dark Matter models and for…
