Modeling of Nonlinear Wave Processes in a Microwave Generator with Magnetic Insulation

The article considers the important problem of modeling nonlinear wave processes in a microwave generator with magnetic insulation. For its numerical analysis, a new computer model is proposed, comprising Maxwell’s equations and the equations of motion of relativistic charged particles, their joint integration by the grid method and the cloud particle method, and a parallel software implementation. In numerical experiments, the spatiotemporal characteristics of relativistic electron beams and plasma, as well as the parameters of the generator’s output radiation, were obtained. The analysis of the results confirmed the correctness of the numerical approach developed.
