Using the von Neumann analysis as a theoretical tool, an analysisof the stability conditions of some explicit time marching schemes, in com-bination with the spatial discretizationLocal Discontinuous Galerkin(LDG)and high order approximations, is presented. The stabilityconstant, CFL(Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy), is studied as a function of theLDG parametersand the approximation degree. A series of numerical experiments is carriedout to validate the theoretical results.
