Collisionless Plasma Dynamics

Collisionless Plasma Dynamics is a theoretical framework within plasma kinetic theory that describes the evolution of plasma systems in which collective electromagnetic interactions dominate over particle collisions, thereby distinguishing it from collisional plasma models by neglecting binary collision effects in favor of mean-field or Vlasov-type descriptions.
