Abstract: In this paper, we investigate the wave phenomena to a fluid-particle model described by the three-dimensional Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equations coupled with the compressible Navier-Stokes/Euler equations (denoted by NS/E-VFP in abbreviation). First, we show that the planar rarefaction wave is time-asymptotic stable for both NS-VFP and E-VFP systems in three dimensions. Furthermore, it can be derived that there exists a smooth solution for NS-VFP system tends to a smooth solution for E-VFP system with some convergence rate as viscosity coefficients tend to zero, in which both the smooth solutions are around the smooth rarefaction wave. It should be noted that such a wave phenomena has never been observed from the pure Fokker-Planck equation and compressible fluids with damping term,which comes essentially from the relaxation interactions between fluid part (the compressible Navier-Stokes/Euler equations) and the kinetic part (Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equations) through the friction force.
