In this paper we study the large‐time behavior of classical solutions to the two‐species Vlasov‐Maxwell‐Boltzmann system in the whole space \input amssym ${\Bbb R}^3$. The existence of global‐in‐time nearby Maxwellian solutions is known from Strain in 2006. However, the asymptotic behavior of these solutions has been a challenging open problem. Building on our previous work on time decay for the simpler Vlasov‐Poisson‐Boltzmann system, we prove that these solutions converge to the global Maxwellian with the optimal decay rate of O(t−3/2 + 3/(2r)) in the L ξ2 (L xr )‐norm for any 2 ≤ r ≤ ∞ if initial perturbation is smooth enough and decays in space velocity fast enough at infinity. Moreover, some explicit rates for the electromagnetic field tending to 0 are also provided. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
