2D And 3D Plasma Modeling

Abstract

The XOOPIC code suite is a set of particle-in-cell plasma simulation codes for modeling plasmas in two and three dimensions. XOOPIC includes electrostatic and electromagnetic models, collision models for mixtures of noble gases, and a wide range of boundary conditions which can be specified from an input file without recompiling.

XOOPIC can be used to simulate basic plasma phenomena, microwave-beam devices, gas discharges, flat panel displays, space-science problems, electron and ion optics, fusion devices, and plasma processing sources.

Applications

Simulates: basic plasma phenomena, microwave-beam devices, gas discharges, flat panel displays, space-science problems, electron and ion optics, fusion devices, plasma processing sources

Advantages

• Runs on a single-processor, symmetric multiprocessor and massively parallel platforms implementing the MPI standard.
• Includes a graphical user interface that operates on the X11 interface to the Unix and Linux operating systems.
