Abstract
The aim of this work is to study the asymptotic behaviour of global in time solutions of the Vlasov-Poisson-Fokker-Planck system in three di mensions. We consider both cases, of gravitational and electrostatic i nteraction, but disregard friction. It is proved that the distribution of particles tends for large times to the fundamental solution of the linear operator, in other words the effect of the interaction potenti al vanishes comparatively as t --> infinity. Convergence takes place i n the L(1) norm.
