Exact local conservation of energy in fully implicit PIC algorithms
Luis Chacon, Guangye Chen
We consider the issue of strict, fully discrete \emph{local} energy conservation for a whole class of fully implicit local-charge- and global-energy-conserving particle-in-cell (PI…

A multiscale hybrid Maxwellian-Monte-Carlo Coulomb collision algorithm for particle simulations
G. Chen, A. J. Stanier, L. Chacón +2
Coulomb collisions in particle simulations for weakly coupled plasmas are modeled by the Landau-Fokker-Planck equation, which is typically solved by Monte-Carlo (MC) methods. One o…
