About Plasma Physics
This PIC simulation models charged particles (electrons and ions) interacting through self-consistent electromagnetic fields. Key phenomena include:
- Debye Shielding: Collective screening of charges
- Plasma Oscillations: Collective electron motion
- Two-Stream Instability: Counter-streaming beams
- Langmuir Waves: Electrostatic oscillations
