The linear Landau effect is revisited by the means of numerical simulations and analytical calculations. The existence of non-Landau solutions to the Vlasov-Poisson system is emphasized and the consistency of these solutions with respect to the arguments based on energy is investigated. The present article briefly summarizes the content of two articles already published on the subject and introduces a discussion based on the exchanges that occurred at Marseille during the Vlasovia meeting.
