Abstract: We study the derivation of the spatially homogeneous Landau equation from the mean-field limit of a conservative $N$-particle system, obtained by passing to the grazing limit on Kac's walk in his program for the Boltzmann equation. Our result covers the full range of interaction potentials, including the physically important Coulomb case. This provides the first resolution of propagation of chaos for a many-particle system approximating the Landau equation with Coulomb interactions, and the first extension of Kac's program to the Landau equation in the soft potential regime. The convergence is established in weak, Wasserstein, and entropic senses, together with strong $L^1$ convergence. For the Maxwellian molecule case, we also derive a quantitative convergence in relative entropy from the Nanbu particle system.
