Construction of the weakly-relativistic Fokker-Planck kinetic equation in the Darwin approximation
- Department of Mathematical Sciences, University of Trieste, 34127 Trieste (Italy)
The explicit form of the weakly-relativistic Vlasov and the Fokker-Planck collision operators for a multispecies plasma are evaluated by using a systematic expansion in {beta}{underscore}={ital v}{underscore}/{ital c} and retaining corrections up to the second order. Properties of these operators are investigated. {copyright} {ital 1996 American Institute of Physics.}
