Damping of particles interacting with a vibrating medium

From MaRDI portal





By slightly modifying the model given in [\textit{L. Bruneau} and \textit{S. De Bièvre}, Commun. Math. Phys. 229, No. 3, 511--542 (2002; Zbl 1073.37079)] the authors investigate the nonstationary solution of the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation for the inelastic Lorentz gas \[ \partial_tF+v\nabla_xF-\nabla_x(V+\Phi)\cdot\nabla_vF=\gamma\nabla_v(vF+\nabla_vF),\quad t\geq 0,\quad x\in\mathbb R^d,\quad v\in\mathbb R^d. \] The behavior of the nonstationary solution for this equation was investigated using a confining external potential \(V\) and the self-consistent potential \(\Phi\). The self-consistent potential \(\Phi\) is describing the interaction of the particles with vibrating environment. The authors consider that the environment is a medium vibrating in a direction transverse to particles' motion. The system was considered for the special typed of the initial data and assuming that ``the external potential and the self-consistent potential. have the same order of magnitude It was found that the considered model has the equilibrium states and have proofed that system demonstrate the asymptotic trend to equilibrium.
