We investigate the formation of a plasma boundary layer (sheath) by considering the Vlasov--Poisson system on a half-line with the completely absorbing boundary condition. In an earlier paper by the first two authors, the solvability of the stationary problem is studied. In this paper, we study the nonlinear stability and instability of these stationary solutions of the Vlasov--Poisson system.

The Vlasov-Poisson system with a perfectly conducting wall: Convex domains
For localized initial data, solutions to the Vlasov-Poisson system in C^3 convex domains with conducting walls have velocities asymptotically supported in the closure of a new asymptotic domain D_∞ and exhibit modifie...
