Rejoinder on: Thermostatistics of Overdamped Motion of Interacting Particles
Yan Levin, Renato Pakter
In their Reply [arXiv:1104.5036] to our Comment [arXiv:1104.0697] Andrade et al. state that we have "chosen to categorically dismiss their elaborate and solid conceptual approach w…
Core-halo distribution in the Hamiltonian Mean-Field Model
Renato Pakter, Yan Levin
We study a paradigmatic system with long-range interactions: the Hamiltonian Mean-Field Model (HMF). It is shown that in the thermodynamic limit this model does not relax to the us…
Thermodynamics of driven collisionless systems
Felipe B. Rizzato, Renato Pakter, Yan Levin
A statistical theory is presented which allows to calculate the stationary state achieved by a driven system after a process of collisionless relaxation. The theory is applied to s…
Collisionless relaxation in gravitational systems: From violent relaxation to gravothermal collapse
Yan Levin, Renato Pakter, Felipe B. Rizzato
Theory and simulations are used to study collisionless relaxation of a gravitational -body system. It is shown that when the initial one particle distribution function satisfies…
Collisionless relaxation in non-neutral plasmas
Yan Levin, Renato Pakter, Tarcisio N. Teles
A theoretical framework is presented which allows to quantitatively predict the final stationary state achieved by a non-neutral plasma during a process of collisionless relaxation…
Comment on: Competing Interactions, the Renormalization Group, and the Isotropic-Nematic Phase Transition, by D. Barci and D. Stariolo, Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 200604 (2007)
Yan Levin
In a recent PRL Barci and Stariolo (BS) generalized the well known Brazovskii model to include an additional rotationally invariant quartic interaction and study this model in two…
