Hybrid fluid-kinetic model for neutral particles in the plasma edge

We elaborate a hybrid fluid-kinetic model for neutral particles in the plasma edge. A macro/fluid model with kinetic corrections in the closure terms of the fluid moment equations is solved in the entire domain. The kinetic corrections follow from a Monte Carlo simulation of the micro/kinetic part....
