The electron cyclotron drift instability: a comparison of particle-in-cell and continuum Vlasov simulations
Arash Tavassoli, Mina Papahn Zadeh, Andrei Smolyakov +2
The linear and nonlinear characteristics of the electron cyclotron drift instability (ECDI) have been studied through the particle-in-cell (PIC) and continuum Vlasov simulation met…
Backward waves in the nonlinear regime of the Buneman instability
Arash Tavassoli, Magdi Shoucri, Andrei Smolyakov +2
Observation of low- and high-frequency backward waves in the nonlinear regime of the Buneman instability is reported. Intense low-frequency backward waves propagating in the direct…
The role of noise in PIC and Vlasov simulations of the Buneman instability
Arash Tavassoli, Oleksandr Chapurin, Marilyn Jimenez +7
The effects of noise in particle-in-cell (PIC) and Vlasov simulations of the Buneman instability in unmagnetized plasmas are studied. It is found that, in the regime of low drift v…
