N2 - A numerical method for solving the Vlasov-Poisson equations using a high-order semi-Lagrange conservative WENO scheme is developed. The Vlasov-Poisson equations govern evolution of the collisionless self-interacting medium and are widely used in plasma physics and astrophysics, in particular for modeling dynamics of galactic systems. The method is implemented for computations on Graphical Processing Units (GPUs). The GPU code is validated using an exact unsteady analytical solution describing nonlinear oscillations of a plane self-gravitating layer. The comparison with numerical results obtained with the serial CPU code show a significant, up to 50 times, speed-up of the computations.
