摘要
A collisionless plasma is modeled by the Vlasov-Maxwell system. For the relativistic Vlasov-Maxwell system in the plane, integral representations of the electromagnetic fields are derived. Using these representations it is shown that smooth solutions can break down only if particles of the plasma approach the speed of light. These results are analogous to those of GLASSEY & STRAUSS [10] in three dimensions.
