34 Conclusions Mean-field Hamiltonian systems with many degrees of freedom display interesting statistical and dynamical properties. Non equilibrium quasi-stationary states arise naturally" from water-bag initial conditions. Their life-time increases with a power of system size. Vlasov (non collisional) equation correctly describes the initial" dynamics. Lynden-Bell maximum entropy principle provides a theoretical approach to quasi-stationary states. The results are derived for mean-field systems, but some of them are expected to be valid also for decaying interactions. Quasi-stationary-states in Hamiltonian mean-field dynamics p.34/35
