A macroscopic PIC code for beam-target interaction studies

Creators

Description

A two-dimensional macroscopic PIC (particle-in-cell) code for (laser) beam-target interaction is described and the complete numerical program is presented. Flux limited nonlinear heat conduction is included in the hydrodynamics. Tests of conservation of symmetry and adiabaticity are shown and energy partition into kinetic and internal energies as well as the accuracy of the heat conduction solution are investigated. (orig.)
