Plasma Simulation

Plasma Simulation is a computational method within plasma physics that numerically models the collective behavior of ionized gases under electromagnetic fields, distinguishing itself from general fluid or particle simulations by explicitly capturing kinetic-scale interactions and non-equilibrium dynamics characteristic of plasmas.
