Abstract :
The paper presents a numerical algorithm to simulate the charging dynamics of high resistivity spherical particles by the ionic bombardment in an electric field. The algorithm is based on solving the Poisson equation, governing the electric field distribution, and the differential equation expressing the charge conservation law. Results of simulation are also presented and they illustrate the effect of different parameters on the charging dynamics.
