Data from: An implicit, conservative electrostatic particle-in-cell algorithm for paraxial magnetic nozzles

Data from: Plasma acceleration in a magnetic arch   - Authors: Mario Merino, Diego García, Eduardo Ahedo   - Contact email: pejimene@ing.uc3m.es   - Date: 2023-06-26   - Keywords: electric propulsion, plasma simulation, magnetic nozzles, implicit particle-in-cell (PIC)   - Version: 0.1   - Digital Object Identifier (DOI): 10.5281/zenodo.8081963   - License: This dataset is made available under the Open Data Commons Attribution License   ## Abstract   This dataset contains the data found in the plots of the preprint:   Pedro Jimenez, Luis Chacon, Mario Merino, "An implicit, conservative electrostatic particle-in-cell algorithm for paraxial magnetic nozzles", arxiv.org.   The data in this repository has been extracted from kinetic simulations as described in the reference. For further information on the setup for the simulation please refer to the article.   ## Data files   The data files are in .csv format. They were produced in Julia using CSV.jl and _DataFrames.jl libraries.   The files are organised following the order of the figures in the article. All the plots are 1D series, the first column corresponding to the x-axis data. Y-axis data is presented in the following columns, the total number of columns equal to the number of line series in the plot +1. The title of each series is found in the first row of the .csv files. Please find below some specificalities in certain figures:   - The columns for the time evolution in fig6_left.csv and fig6_right.csv (corresponding to the actual left and right columns in the figure i.e. cases A and B) contain a field tag followed by the corresponding time step (e.g. phi_500).   - Due to the different number of nodes, steady state fields for cases A and B are saved in fig8_a-f.csv while cases AF and BF are saved in fig8_a-f_fine.csv.   The rest of the data files should be self descripting   ## Citation   Any works using this dataset or any part of it in any form shall cite it as follows:   The prefered means of citation is to reference the publication asociated to the dataset with DOI: 10.1088/1361-6595/acd476   The BibTex is also provided for the sake of convinience:   @article{Merino_2023, doi = {10.1088/1361-6595/acd476}, url = {https://dx.doi.org/10.1088/1361-6595/acd476}, year = {2023}, month = {jun}, publisher = {IOP Publishing}, volume = {32}, number = {6}, pages = {065005}, author = {Mario Merino and Diego García-Lahuerta and Eduardo Ahedo}, title = {Plasma acceleration in a magnetic arch}, journal = {Plasma Sources Science and Technology}, abstract = {} }   Optionally the dataset can be cited by referencing the DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.7947735     ## Acknowledgments   This dataset was created by the ERC-ZARATHUSTRA project.   The ERC-ZARATHUSTRA project has received funding from the European Research Council (ERC) under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (grant agreement No 950466).
