Investigating Instabilities in Magnetized Low-pressure Capacitively-Coupled RF Plasma using Particle-in-Cell (PIC) Simulations
Sathya Ganta, Kallol Bera, Shahid Rauf +5
The effect of a uniform magnetic field on particle transport in low-pressure radio frequency (RF) capacitively coupled plasma (CCP) has been studied using a particle-in-cell (PIC)…
Establishing Criteria for the Transition from Kinetic to Fluid Modeling in Hollow Cathode Analysis
Willca Villafana, Andrew T. Powis, Sarveshwar Sharma +2
In this study, we conduct 2D3V Particle-In-Cell simulations of hollow cathodes, encompassing both the channel and plume region, with an emphasis on plasma switch applications. The…
Numerical thermalization in 2D PIC simulations: Practical estimates for low temperature plasma simulations
Sierra Jubin, Andrew Tasman Powis, Willca Villafana +5
The process of numerical thermalization in particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations has been studied extensively. It is analogous to Coulomb collisions in real plasmas, causing particle…
