For a general potential, the smallest gaps of the 2D Coulomb gas at beta=2 are of order n^{-3/4} and converge to a Poisson point process with intensity determined by the equilibrium density.

abstract
In this paper we study the limiting distribution of the $k$ smallest gaps between eigenvalues of three kinds of random matrices -- the Ginibre ensemble, the Wishart ensemble and the universal unitary ensemble. All of them follow a Poissonian ansatz. More precisely, for the Ginibre ensemble we have a global result in which the $k$-th smallest gap has typical length $n^{-3/4}$ with density $x^{4k-1}e^{-x^4}$ after normalization. For the Wishart and the universal unitary ensemble, it has typical length $n^{-4/3}$ and has density $x^{3k-1}e^{-x^3}$ after normalization.

Smallest gaps of the two-dimensional Coulomb gas
For a general potential, the smallest gaps of the 2D Coulomb gas at beta=2 are of order n^{-3/4} and converge to a Poisson point process with intensity determined by the equilibrium density.
