Function Documentation

simulate_fo_fixed()

void simulate_fo_fixed	(	particle_queue *	pq,
		sim_data *	sim,
		int	mrk_array_size )

Simulates particles using fixed time-step.

The simulation includes:

• orbit-following with Volume-Preserving Algorithm
• Coulomb collisions with Euler-Maruyama method

The simulation is carried until all markers have met some end condition or are aborted/rejected. The final state of the markers is stored in the given marker array. Other output is stored in the diagnostic array.

The time-step is user-defined: either a directly given fixed value or a given fraction of gyrotime.

Parameters

pq	particles to be simulated
sim	simulation data struct
mrk_array_size	size of particle arrays
