We present fast numerical algorithms to solve the nonlinear Fokker-Planck-Landau equation in 3D velocity space. The discretization of the collision operator preserves the properties required by the physical nature of the Fokker-Planck-Landau equation, such as the conservation of mass, momentum, an
A new approach for the accurate numerical solution of the Fokker-Planck-Landau (FPL) equation in the nonhomogeneous case is presented. The method couples, through a time-splitting algorithm, a finite-volume scheme for the transport with a fast spectral solver for the efficient solution of the collis
Using the IMSL package TWODEPEP, the full non-relativistic Fokker-Planck equation is solved numerically for the runaway electron distribution function in the presence of a dc electric field. A set of partial integro-differential equations derived from a Legendre expansion of the Fokker-Planck equati
