Abstract :
A computer code for simulation of charged particle motion in nonstationary electromagnetic field is described. Electromagnetic field is excited by charged particle current density and (or) outer sources and is found in time domain by FDTD method in rectangular or cylindrical systems of coordinates. Outer constant electric and magnetic fields may be imposed as an initial condition. Charged particle motion is simulated by particle-in-cell (PIC) method. The code solves two-dimensional self consistent problems and is designated for personal computers with moderate resources and Windows 95/98/NT operational system
