Numerical Aspects of Particle-in-Cell Simulations for Plasma-Motion Modeling of Electric Thrusters
The present work is focused on a detailed description of an in-house, particle-in-cell code developed by the authors, whose main aim is to perform highly accurate plasma simulations on an off-the-shelf computing platform in a relatively short computational time, despite the large number of macro-par...
