Computer Simulations of Ion Transport Across Excitable Membrane Stimulated by External Field

Abstract

This is the Final Technical Report on work performed under the support of the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (F49620-03-0134) on the subject that was changed to Terahertz radiation sources after fulfillment of its original biological direction. This report describes the motivation and approach being taken to elucidate the physical mechanism for generating radiation from DC discharge in Coaxial Resonators. The electrostatic phenomena arose in this configuration, such as plasma oscillations and sheath formation was extensively investigated by Irving Langmuir. Hopefully, we will be able to study the electromagnetic effect using our particle model under development.
