dc.description.abstract | A large number of wave modes exist in a magnetized plasma. Their properties are
determined by the interaction of particles and waves. In a simulation code, the correct
treatment of field quantities and particle behaviour is essential to correctly reproduce
the wave properties. Consequently, plasma waves provide test problems that cover a
large fraction of the simulation code. The large number of possible wave modes and
the freedom to choose parameters make the selection of test problems time consuming
and comparison between different codes difficult. This paper therefore aims to provide
a selection of test problems, based on different wave modes and with well-defined
parameter values, that is accessible to a large number of simulation codes to allow for
easy benchmarking and cross-validation. Example results are provided for a number
of plasma models. For all plasma models and wave modes that are used in the test
problems, a mathematical description is provided to clarify notation and avoid possible
misunderstanding in naming | en_US |
