We consider a particle system in 1D, interacting via repulsive or attractive Coulomb forces. We prove the trajectorial propagation of molecular chaos towards a nonlinear SDE associated to the Vlasov-Poisson-Fokker-Planck equation. We obtain a quantitative estimate of convergence in the mean in MKW metric of order one, with an optimal convergence rate of order $N^{-1/2}$. We also prove some exponential concentration inequalities of the associated empirical measures. A key argument is a weak-strong stability estimate on the (nonlinear) VPFP equation, that we are able to adapt for the particle system in some sense.

Keywords: Vlasov-Poisson equation, Propagation of chaos, concentration inequalities, quantitative estimates, weak-strong stability.
