In laser plasmas interactions, the simulation of stimulated Brillouin scattering takes a long time. In order to decrease the simulation time, a hybrid Vlasov code is developed, in which the electrons are treated as Boltzmann fluid. The two-ion beam instability is simulated, and the simulation results are compared with the theoretical results. Stimulated Brillouin scattering is also simulated, the results show the code correctness.
