Abstract: We perform a rigorous analysis of the quasineutral limit for a hydrodynamical model of a viscous plasma represented by the Navier Stokes Poisson system in 3D. We show that as lambdao0 the velocity field ulambda strongly converges towards an incompressible velocity vector field u and the density fluctuation holambda1 weakly converges to zero. In general the limit velocity field cannot be expected to satisfy the incompressible Navier Stokes equation, indeed the presence of high frequency oscillations strongly affects the quadratic nonlinearities and we have to take care of self interacting wave packets. We shall provide a detailed mathematical description of the convergence process by using microlocal defect measures and by developing an explicit correctors analysis. Moreover we will be able to identify an explicit pseudo parabolic pde satisfied by the leading correctors terms. Our results include all the previous results in literature, in particular we show that the formal limit holds rigorously in the case of well prepared data.
