Post-collapse dynamics of self-gravitating Brownian particles in D dimensions
Clement Sire, Pierre-Henri Chavanis
We address the post-collapse dynamics of a self-gravitating gas of Brownian particles in D dimensions, in both canonical and microcanonical ensembles. In the canonical ensemble, th…
Generalized thermodynamics and kinetic equations: Boltzmann, Landau, Kramers and Smoluchowski
Pierre-Henri Chavanis
We propose a formal extension of thermodynamics and kinetic theories to a larger class of entropy functionals. Kinetic equations associated to Boltzmann, Fermi, Bose and Tsallis en…
Anomalous diffusion and collapse of self-gravitating Langevin particles in D dimensions
Pierre-Henri Chavanis, Clement Sire
We address the generalized thermodynamics and the collapse of a system of self-gravitating Langevin particles exhibiting anomalous diffusion in a space of dimension D. The equilibr…
Statistical mechanics and phase diagrams of rotating self-gravitating fermions
P. H. Chavanis, M. Rieutord
We compute statistical equilibrium states of rotating self-gravitating systems enclosed within a box by maximizing the Fermi-Dirac entropy at fixed mass, energy and angular momentu…
