Characteristic Mapping Method for Vlasov-Poisson with BGK-collisions
This work presents the first steps for simulating kinetic plasmas with collisions using the characteristic mapping method (CMM). The CMM is a semi-Lagrangian method that explores a semi-group structure to store diffeomorphic flow maps efficiently. Using the semi-group structure, individual submaps can be composed to re...
