Abstract

We study the global existence and asymptotic behavior of smooth solutions near a nonflat steady state to the compressible non-isentropic Euler–Poisson system in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Using some concise energy estimates and an interpolation trick, we show that the solution converges to the stationary solution exponentially fast. Here our results can follow from that the $H^3$ norms of the initial density, velocity and temperature are small. In this sense, we reduce the regularity of the initial temperature in [Y.P. Li, J. Differential Equations, 225:134–167, 2006].
