    "abstract": "The expansion dynamics of a finite size plasma is examined from an analytical\nperspective. Results regarding the charge distribution as well as the\nelectrostatic potential are presented. The acceleration of the ions and the\nassociated cooling of the electrons that takes place during the plasma\nexpansion is described. An extensive analysis of the transition between the\nsemi infinite and the finite size plasma behaviour is carried out. Finally, a\ntest of the analytical results, performed through numerical simulations, is\npresented.",
