Apply E Field to electron particle motion simulations #26

Closed MatthewGrim closed 6 years ago

MatthewGrim commented 6 years ago

This issue documents the addition of an electric field to the simulations of electron particle motion being run. This should shorten confinement times.

Preliminary results

n = 0.0

histogram_results-current-100000 0-radius-1 0-energy-10 0-n-0 00e 00

n = 1e4

histogram_results-current-100000 0-radius-1 0-energy-10 0-n-1 00e 04

n = 1e8

histogram_results-current-100000 0-radius-1 0-energy-10 0-n-1 00e 08

n = 1e12

Notes

It's a very preliminary result, but the sims show little chance of confining the 1e12 plasma level we need to create a deep enough well depth. These sims need to be run with a faster c++ code than what I currently have if I'm going to get a good scan out.

This issue is closed and will be picked up properly when I have a faster code.
