Simulation of Smith-Purcell terahertz radiation using a particle-in-cell code
A simulation of the generation of Smith-Purcell (SP) radiation at terahertz frequencies has been performed using the two-dimensional particle-in-cell code MAGIC. The simulation supposes that a thin (but infinitely wide) monoenergetic electron beam passes over a diffraction grating. We simulate two c...
