Abstract :
A 2.5-dimensional magnetostatic particle-in-cell (TRIPIC) code was developed to simulate the trajectories of the particles in LIB diode which has curved electrode surface. By using this PIC code, we present a numerical results of the beam-particle behavior for LIB focusing and propagation. The results show that it is possible to use the self-magnetic field for the good LIB focusing and propagation.
