Numerical Non-neutral Plasmas

摘要

For the past 15 years, or so, a set of computational tools for studying non-neutral plasmas has been developed at Brigham Young University. These codes, which include equilibrium codes (for both static plasmas and solitons), radial eigenvalue codes, 2-d eigenvalue codes, and both 2-d and 3-d particle-in-cell simulation codes, will be discussed, along with their applications to problems of interest to the non-neutral plasma physics community.
