Providing readers with an easy to follow set of examples that clearly illustrate how simulation codes are written, this book guides readers through how to develop C++ computer codes for simulating plasmas primarily with the kinetic Particle in Cell (PIC) method. This text will be invaluable to advanced undergraduates and graduate students in physics and engineering looking to learn how to put the theory to the test UR - https://www.taylorfrancis.com/books/9780429439780 UR - http://www.oclc.org/content/dam/oclc/forms/terms/vbrl-201703.pdf ER -
