Non-linear collisionless plasma wakes of small particles
The wake behind a spherical particle smaller than the Debye length ( De) in owing plasma is calculated using a particle-in-cell code. The results with di erent magnitudes of charge reveal substantial non-linear e ects down to values that for a oating particle would correspond to a particle ra...
