A discontinuous Galerkin method for the Vlasov-Poisson system
TL;DR: In this paper, a discontinuous Galerkin method for approximating the Vlasov-Poisson system of equations describing the time evolution of a collisionless plasma is proposed, which preserves the positivity of the electron distribution function and weakly enforces continuity of the electric field through mesh interfaces and boundary conditions.
