A model of a multiphase medium based on the closure of moment chains for the Vlasov-Poisson equations
Year: 2026
Type: preprint
Abstract: We propose a method for closing moment chains for the Vlasov-Poisson kinetic system (the Landau fluid model), which yields a hyperbolic system of equations at each subsequent step. This system is interpreted as a multicomponent medium, where each component has its own density, velocity, and pressure. The coupling between the components is mediated by an electric field. The principle of closing moment chains is that the final component of the fluid is assumed to be pressureless.
