The precise structure of the model differs according to which species of charged particle (electrons or ions) it describes, with the most well known version of the system describing electrons. The model for ions, however, has been studied only more recently, owing to an additional exponential nonlinearity in the equation for the electrostatic potential that creates several mathematical difficulties not encountered in the electron case.
