Explore a lecture on multi-species kinetic models of plasma, focusing on theory and numerical methods. Delve into the complexities of Boltzmann equations and their simplified BGK model counterparts for describing evolving gases. Examine a new model for multi-species kinetic descriptions in plasma, particularly relevant to inertial confinement fusion, where collision frequency depends on microscopic velocity. Learn about the theoretical properties of this model, including conservation properties and the H-theorem, and discover how these findings pave the way for numerical solutions. Gain insights into the algorithm developed for solving these equations and understand the importance of multi-species kinetic models in adequately describing plasma behavior.
