EKXL: A Dynamic Poisson-Solver for Polywell(Trademark)/HEPS Spherical Converging Flow Systems

Abstract

The EKXL code, and each of its predecessors, is a 1-D radially- dependent Poisson-solver. It gives static solutions for potential and density distributions, given edge density specifications for these parameters. It is a point model in that spatial variation of externally-imposed fields is possible, but spatial dependence of inter-particle interaction phenomena can not be accommodated as an integral part of code operations.
