Flowing plasmas and absorbing objects: analytic and numerical solutions culminating 80 years of ion-collection theory
Recent computational and theoretical progress in understanding and calculating ion collection by negatively charged absorbing objects in a flowing plasma is outlined. The results are placed in the context of key theoretical achievements of prior research. Despite the topic's long history, and p...
