This simulation is made using electrostatic particle in cell method. First, it simulates the minimum-B trap, which has been studied both numerically and experimentally, by which is accomplished the confrontation of 6 different types of results that help us to validate our code. In the same way the zero-B trap is analysed. Proposed by Dr. Dugar-Zhabon, the main characteristic of the trap is the nullity of the magnetic eld in the centre of the trap. The results show the detailed behaviour of the electronic component in the initial stage of the formation of plasma. Given the computational cost of the used model that allowed us to simulates ne details of the dynamics of plasma. Results were only reached in the time of half-life of the electrons. During this period the minimum-B trap proved to be better for the production of ions than the zero-B trap. Due to the huge amount of equations needed to solve the motion equations and the charge density, they are calculated in a Parallel way by GPU clustering.application/pdfAtribución-NoComercial-CompartirIgual 2.5 Colombiahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/co/PIC numerical study of ECR plasmas confinement in a minimum-B and zero-B magnetic traps with GPUResonance Electron CyclotronPlasmasMinimum-B trapZero-B traphttps://doi.org/10.1088/1742-6596/687/1/012059Generación de Nuevo Conocimiento: Artículos publicados en revistas especializadas - Electrónicos
