Abstract: The exact motion of a one‐dimensional system interacting through the electrostatic field is followed using a fast computer. The properties of the model are discussed and related to the three‐dimensional plasma. New results are presented for the drag and diffusion of test particles and the space and time correlations of the charge density. These ``experiments'' agree with the conventional theory. In an appendix is derived the kinetic equation for this model to first order in the small parameter, the reciprocal of the number of particles in the Debye length. To first order a velocity distribution is constant in time.

On the theory of stationary waves in plasmas
TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown that the dispersion equation can be overcome by a proper treatment, which leads to a complete set of stationary solutions, which are much more numerous than the usual plasma oscillations.

One‐Dimensional Plasma Model
TL;DR: In this paper, a one-dimensional plasma model consisting of a large number of identical charge sheets embedded in a uniform fixed neutralizing background is investigated by following the sheet motions on a high speed computer.
