Space charge calculations for sub-three-dimensional particle-in-cell code

A novel approach for modeling high-current, charged particle beams in a three-dimensional manner is introduced. While the integration of beam motion equations is done as in completely 3D particle-in-cell codes, the space charge forces are found by an approximately self-consistent inclusion of the tr...
