Analytic model of the energy distribution function for highly energetic electrons in magnetron plasmas
Sara Gallian, Jan Trieschmann, Thomas Mussenbrock +2
This paper analyzes a situation which is common for magnetized technical plasmas such as dc magnetron discharges and HiPIMS systems, where secondary electrons enter the plasma afte…
Arbitrarily high order Convected Scheme solution of the Vlasov-Poisson system
Yaman Güçlü, Andrew J. Christlieb, William N. G. Hitchon
The Convected Scheme (CS) is a `forward-trajectory' semi-Lagrangian method for solution of transport equations, which has been most often applied to the kinetic description of plas…
A high order cell-centered semi-Lagrangian scheme for multi-dimensional kinetic simulations of neutral gas flows
Yaman Güçlü, William N. G. Hitchon
The term `Convected Scheme' (CS) refers to a family of algorithms, most usually applied to the solution of Boltzmann's equation, which uses a method of characteristics in an integr…
A phenomenological model for the description of rotating spokes in HiPIMS discharges
S Gallian, W N G Hitchon, D Eremin +2
In the ionization region above circular planar magnetrons well defined regions of high emissivity are observed, when the discharge is driven in the HiPIMS regime. Once their mode i…
sd-type Exchange Interactions in Nonhomogeneous Ferromagnets
W. N. G. Hitchon, G. J. Parker, A. Rebei
Motivated by a need to understand spin-momentum transport in CPP (current perpendicular to the plane) structures, a quantum field theoretical treatment of spin-spin interactions in…
Spin accumulation in ferromagnets
W. N. G. Hitchon, R. W. Chantrell, A. Rebei
Using a density matrix formulation for the effective action, we obtain a set of macroscopic equations that describe spin accumulation in a non-homogeneous ferromagnet. We give a ne…
