Universal equilibria, phase-space structure of collisionless plasma systems, and turbulence in non-Maxwellian plasmas
<p>A fundamental tenet of thermodynamics is that chaotic systems will relax to maximum-entropy states. In plasmas, the chaos is conventionally provided by interparticle collisions and the universal maximum-entropy equilibrium is a Maxwellian distribution. However, in collisionless plasmas, the...
