We investigate the {ital h} expansion of the Time-Dependent Hartree Fock equation in the Wigner and Husimi representations. Both lead formally to the Vlasov equation in lowest order. The Husimi representation delivers a more stable expansion in particular when the self-interaction in the mean field is considered. The test particle solution of the Vlasov equation turns out to be closely related to the Husimi representation. Copyright {copyright} 1995 Academic Press, Inc.
