An efficient, conservative, time-implicit solver for the fully kinetic arbitrary-species 1D-2V Vlasov-Ampère system
Steven E. Anderson, William T. Taitano, Luis Chacón +1
We consider the solution of the fully kinetic (including electrons) Vlasov-Ampère system in a one-dimensional physical space and two-dimensional velocity space (1D-2V) for an arbit…
A conservative phase-space moving-grid strategy for a 1D-2V Vlasov-Fokker-Planck Equation
William Tsubasa Taitano, Luis Chacon, Andrei Simakov +1
We develop a conservative phase-space grid-adaptivity strategy for the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation in a planar geometry. The velocity-space grid is normalized to the thermal spee…
A fully implicit, scalable, conservative nonlinear relativistic Fokker-Planck 0D-2P solver for runaway electron
Don Daniel, William T. Taitano, Luis Chacón
Upon application of a sufficiently strong electric field, electrons break away from thermal equilibrium and approach relativistic speeds. These highly energetic runaway electrons (…
