Kinetic (PIC) simulations for a plane probe in a collisional plasma
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract In Langmuir-probe diagnostics of fusion plasmas, collisions between charged and neutral particles are often neglected. We present a simple analytical theory of the plane probe including these collisions. Our analytical results are confirmed by high-resolution particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations covering the whole range of the Volt–Ampere characteristic.
