contents Given suitable small, localized, $\mathbb U(1)$-symmetric solutions to the Einstein-massless Vlasov system in an elliptic gauge, we prove that they can be approximated by high-frequency vacuum spacetimes. This extends previous constructions where the limiting spacetime solves the Einstein-(multiple) null dust system (i.e., where the limiting massless Vlasov field can be written as a finite sum of delta measures). The proof proceeds by first approximating solutions to the Einstein-massless Vlasov system by solutions to the Einstein-(multiple) null dust system, then approximating solutions to the Einstein-null dust system by vacuum solutions. In the process, we take the number of families of dusts to infinity.
