Abstract
Simulations are a powerful method to study the correlation between output beams and internal dynamics of electron cyclotron resonance ion sources (ECRIS), which involve a complex interplay between injected power, RF frequency, gas type and pressure. We present here some details on 3D full-wave Particle-in-Cell (PIC) code suites that can simulate electron and ion dynamics self-consistently in an ECR plasma. Preliminary runs of the simulation show an encouraging match with experimental data which acts as a benchmark for the PIC codes and highlights its potential for fundamental and applied interdisciplinary plasma research.
