We consider a positive Vlasov-Helmholtz plasma in interaction with a positive point charge in $\R^2$ and we prove an existence and uniqueness theorem for this system without any assumption on the decay at infinity of the spatial density.
Keywords: infinitely extended systems., Vlasov-Helmholtz plasma.
