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…
Thermodynamics of self-gravitating fermions as a robust theory for dark matter halos: Stability analysis applied to the Milky Way
A. Krut, C. R. Argüelles, P. -H. Chavanis
We present a framework for dark matter (DM) halo formation based on a kinetic theory of self-gravitating fermions together with a solid connection to thermodynamics. Based on maxim…
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…
