The existence and asymptotic stability of Plasma-Sheaths to the full Euler-Poisson system (2403.09730v1)

Abstract: The main concern of this paper is to study large-time behavior of the sheath to the full Euler-Poisson system. As is well known, the monotone stationary solution under the Bohm criterion can be referred to as the sheath which is formed by interactions of plasma with wall. So far, the existence and asymptotic stability of stationary solutions in one-dimensional half space to the full Euler-Poisson system have been proved in \cite{DYZ2021}. In the present paper, we extend the results in \cite{DYZ2021} to $N$-dimensional ($N$=1,2,3) half space. By assuming that the velocity of the positive ion satisfies the Bohm criterion at the far field, we establish the global unique existence and the large time asymptotic stability of the sheath in some weighted Sobolev spaces by weighted energy method. Moreover, the time-decay rates are also obtained. A key different point from \cite{DYZ2021} is to derive some boundary estimates on the derivative of the potential in the $x_1$-direction.
