We investigate the impact of weak collisions on Landau damping in the Vlasov-Poisson-Fokker-Planck system on a torus, specifically focusing on its proximity to a Maxwellian distribution. In the case where the Gevrey index satisfies $\frac{1}{s}<3$, we establish the global stability and enhanced dissipation of small initial data, which remain unaffected by the small diffusion coefficient $\nu$. For Gevrey index $\frac{1}{s}\ge3$, we prove the global stability and enhanced dissipation of initial data, whose size is on the order of $O(\nu^a)$ for any $a>\frac{1-3s}{3-3s}$. Our analysis provides insights into the effects of phase mixing, enhanced dissipation, and plasma echoes. |
