Title: Computational study of probe diagnostics in high-temperature plasma Author: Jan Lachnitt Department: Department of Surface and Plasma Science Supervisor: prof. RNDr. Rudolf Hrach, DrSc., Department of Surface and Plasma Science Abstract: This work is concerned to the particle computer modelling of the interaction of plasma, especially edge plasma, with immersed solids, especially probes. First, the speed and accuracy of several algorithms of the electrostatic force calculation were compared. One of the algorithms has been newly proposed. Then, a two-dimensional model of the interaction of collision-less plasma with a probe was created. This model has been applied to experimental data from CASTOR tokamak. The crucial point of this work is the creation of a fully three-dimensional particle model. This model has been tested for accuracy and speed and has been parallelized for higher efficiency. Keywords: plasma, probe diagnostics, computational physics, particle modelling
