Description
Plasma acceleration technology opens up promising prospects for the development of modern particle accelerators. The complexity of this phenomenon makes numerical modelling essential for its study. The primary numerical method is particle-in-cell simulation. The accuracy of the macroparticle trajectory calculation is crucial for determining the simulation precision. Modern numerical methods make it possible to solve equations of motion with greater accuracy than classical approaches, while maintaining computational costs of the same order. This work presents a comparative analysis of several integrators of charged particle trajectories to evaluate their accuracy and performance.
