Macroscale particle simulation of kinetic Alfven waves

Creators

Description

Simulation of the kinetic Alfven wave, which has many applications in space and fusion plasmas, has been performed by using macroscale (magnetohydrodynamic scale) particle simulation code. Dispersion properties and wave-particle interactions of the kinetic Alfven wave (such as Landau damping and electron acceleration) are successfully obtained in the simulation. (author)
