Workshop content
The Plasma Device Workshop 2007 (PDW2007) is a 2.5 day workshop on the particle simulation of plasmas and plasma devices. The objective of the workshop is to teach the fundamentals of particle-in-cell simulation techniques and their application in modeling plasma devices, using the University of California at Berkeley Code Suite. The workshop is appropriate for graduate students and plasma professionals with some background in electro magnetics or plasma physics.
The workshop consists of lectures and practicum including the following key elements:
- Standard PIC algorithms
- Advanced PIC algorithms
- Modeling techniques, approximations
- Applications to basic plasma physics and a wide range of bounded plasma devices.

About Prof. Verboncoeur
The instructor, Prof. Verboncoeur, currently leads the Plasma Theory and Simulation Group at the University of California at Berkeley, which produces the PTSG code suite used in the course. He has taught plasma simulation workshops more than 10 times in the past 15 years. The PTSG code suite is in use by over 1000 users worldwide with over 250 publications in the last decade. Prof. Verboncoeur also heads the new Computational Engineering Science (CES) Program at UC-Berkeley, and teaches several novel courses in multidisciplinary modeling and simulation techniques.
