PIC-MCC - Electron beam acceleration and ionization of background gas with species-specific time step

  • Inserting electrons with a zero velocity and at a low temperature
  • Acceleration with a potential difference of 20 kV
  • Ionization of background gas through MCC
  • Species-specific time step to push electrons with dt = 1e-12s but not included in MCC
    • ManualTimeStep = 1.0000E-11
    • Part-Species1-TimeStepFactor = 0.1
    • Part-VariableTimeStep-DisableForMCC = T
  • Reference file was generated using a regular time step of dt = 1e-12s
  • Comparing the number density of the electron and ions in the channel
