Abstract
We use the compactness result of A. Burchard and Y. Guo to analyze the reduced 'energy' functional arising naturally in the stability analysis of steady states of the Vlasov-Poisson system (cf. Sanchez and Soler, to appear, and Hadzic, 2005). We consider the associated variational problem and present a new proof that puts it in the general framework for tackling the variational problems of this type, given by Y. Guo and G. Rein (cf. Rein, 2005 and Rein, 2002).
