Higher-Order Accurate and Conservative Hybrid Numerical Scheme for Relativistic Time-Fractional Vlasov-Maxwell System

The historical analysis demonstrates that plasma scientists produced a variety of numerical methods for solving “kinetic” models, i.e., the Vlasov-Maxwell (VM) system. Still, on the other hand, a significant fact or drawback of most algorithms is that they do not preserve conservation philosophies. This is a crucial fact that cannot be disregarded since the Vlasov Maxwell system is associated with conservation rules and is capable of assessing after the accomplishment of certain helpful mathematical actions. To examine the fractional-order routine of charged particles, we constructed a fractional-order plasma model and proposed a higher-order conservative numerical approach based on operational matrices theory and Shifted Gegenbauer estimations. Numerical convergence is investigated to confirm its competence and compatibility. This concept may be used in problems involving variable order and multidimensionality, such as those involving Vlasov and Boltzmann systems.
