Cosmological Vlasov-Poisson equations for dark matter: Recent developments and connections to selected plasma problems

Cornelius Rampf

Abstract: The cosmic large-scale structures of the Universe are mainly the result of the gravitational instability of initially small density fluctuations in the dark-matter distribution. Dark matter appears to be initially cold and behaves as a continuous and collisionless medium on cosmological scales, with evolution governed by the gravitational Vlasov-Poisson equations. Cold dark matter can accumulate very efficiently at focused locations, leading to a highly non-linear filamentary network with extreme matter densit… Show more

“…Equations of Schrödinger-Poisson type can also be derived as an alternate scheme for closing the Vlasov cumulant hierarchy which appears in CDM dynamics (see e.g. Rampf (2021) for a recent review of the cosmological Vlasov-Poisson equations). If one requires that the cumulant generating function is constructed only from the density and velocity (the first two cumulants) degrees of freedom, then the resulting cumulant generating function takes the form of Schrödinger-Poisson (Uhlemann 2018).…”
