Where are the challenges?
Fusion science offers models to describe magnetized plasmas: • Drift kinetics, gyro kinetics, ….
However, low temperature plasmas differ in many ways: • Only some regions of the discharge are magnetized • Magnetic field lines have finite length, from wall to wall • Only electrons are magnetized • Different groups of electrons may exist (and interact) • Interaction with the wall and with boundary sheaths is important • Collisions with neutrals and Coulomb collisions play a role • Electromagnetic fluctuations have a different spectrum • Spontaneous symmetry breaking may occur
Strategy: Keep the ideas but start anew from first principles

Cold electrons: • Created by ionization and from cooled-down hot electrons • Reflected by the cathode sheath • Heated by hot electrons and the field, lose energy to neutrals • Maxwellized by Coulomb interaction (“thermal equilibrium”) • Make up more than 99% of the electron density

The specular reflection law gets more complicated:
However, a numerical construction is possible: • Take an incoming electron with given gyro elements (in, in),
calculated in reference to the formal sheath plane s=0. • Follow the electron in its (possibly multiple) sheath interactions
until it has become an outgoing electron. • Calculate the gyro elements (out, out) of the outgoing electron
in reference to the formal sheath plane s=0.
The mapping (in, in) (out, out) defines the collision operator T.

Summary and outlook
Magnetized low pressure plasmas:
• Many technological applications (HIPIMS/PIAD/Thruster …)
• Complicated physics, many different length and time scales
• Can only be treated by kinetic methods
Reduced kinetic theory exploits scaling D s rL L:
• Describes electron temperature and potential on field lines (y,)
• Anomalous transport and Ohmic heating is covered
• Must still be numerically solved, but stiffness is eliminated
Future work: Self-consistent coupling to a model for ions/neutrals and to models for the target and the (possibly biased) substrate.
