摘要
An implicit electrostatic particle-in-cell/Monte Carlo （PIC/MC） algorithm is developed for the magnetized discharging device simulation. The inductive driving force can be considered. The direct implicit PIC algorithm （DIPIC） and energy conservation scheme are applied together and the grid heating can be eliminated in most cases. A tensor-susceptibility Poisson equation is constructed. Its discrete form is made up by a hybrid scheme in one-dimensional （1D） and two- dimensional （2D） cylindrical systems. A semi-coarsening multigrid method is used to solve the discrete system. The algorithm is applied to simulate the cylindrical magnetized target fusion （MTF） pre-ionization process and get qualitatively correct results. The potential application of the algorithm is discussed briefly.
