Scientific Topics • Space and astrophysical plasmas • Gravitational systems • Magnetic confinement plasmas • Basic collisionless plasma physics • Computational and theoretical approaches Description of the workshop The workshop aims at providing an up-to-date summary for scientists working in the field of Vlasov theory. The Vlasov equation is used for the modeling of a wide range of phenomena occurring in natural and laboratory plasmas, as well as in other many-particle systems displaying a collective behavior. The present edition will focus on space and astrophysical plasmas. A special session will be devoted to the THOR mission (http://thor.irfu.se/) of the European Space Agency, which addresses the fundamental questions of turbulent energy dissipation and particle energization.

In accordance with the editorial policies of JPP, we invite all VLASOVIA 2016 participants and all interested researchers worldwide to submit articles containing original research results for inclusion in this issue. This Special Issue intends 1. To provide a forum for the presentation of a broad variety of scientific results, 2. To involve the Vlasov equation community at large, ranging from the investigations of the physics and technological applications of the Vlasov equation, to its mathematical foundation and properties, to numerical methods, 3. To bring together results obtained within different communities, from laboratory to astrophysical and space plasmas, to nonlinear dynamics and applied mathematics. All articles should be submitted through the usual JPP portal: http://Journals.cambridge.org/action/displaySpecialPage?pageId=2924 Paper submission will begin after the end of the VLASOVIA conference. Submissions should be clearly identified as intended for the Special Issue "The Vlasov equation: from space to laboratory plasmas" (use the pull down menu). Please note that all contributions must be received no later than October 31st, 2016. We look forward to receiving your submission!
