This paper is concerned with multi-dimensional non-isentropic Euler–Poisson equations for plasmas or semiconductors. By using the method of formal asymptotic expansions, we analyse the quasi-neutral limit for Cauchy problems with prepared initial data. It is shown that the small-parameter problems have unique solutions existing in the finite time interval where the corresponding limit problems have smooth solutions. Moreover, the formal limit is justified.
