A code to solve the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation applied to particle transport in magnetic turbulence
We present a novel code which solves the Vlasov-Fokker-Planck (VFP) equation in three-dimensional magnetic turbulence using finite difference methods. The approach is distinct from particle tracking codes. The angular component of the velocity space distribution function is represented by a spherica...
