Landau damping in one dimensional periodic inhomogeneous collisionless plasmas

Landau damping in a collisionless plasma is a well-known example of wave particle interaction. In the past, this phenomenon was addressed for homogeneous equilibria in the linear and non-linear limit of the perturbation amplitude. However, in reality, equilibria are almost always inhomogeneous or no...
