摘要
The particle-in-cell (PIC) and Monte Carlo collisions (MCC) methods are workhorses of many numerical simulations of physical systems. Recently, it was pointed out that, while the two methods can be exactly-or nearly-energy-conserving independently, combining the two leads to anomalous numerical heating. This paper reviews the standard explicit PIC-MCC algorithm, elucidates the origins of the anomalous numerical heating, and explains how to couple the two methods such that the anomalous numerical heating is avoided.
