Dear developers, I am now using EPOCH2d. There are two beams of light traveling towards each other.They are all initially gaussian beams, however as the propagation distance increases,their profiles become weird. I have no idea why it happened as there was no plasma in the input.deck . I am also curious about why the leading edge rises suddenly. Below are my output: Ey at t=1ps(10Ey) and t=3.33ps (34Ey) respectively. Waiting for your reply. Thanks in advance. T10EyT34Ey input.deck

Have you found the reason? I met the same problem now...
