Breaking of two-dimensional relativistic electron oscillations under small deviations from axial symmetry

Аннотация

A numerical asymptotic model for the breaking of two-dimensional plane relativistic electron oscillations under a small deviation from axial symmetry is developed. The asymptotic theory makes use of the construction of time-uniformly applicable solutions to weakly nonlinear equations. A special finite-difference algorithm on staggered grids is used for numerical simulation. The numerical solutions of axially symmetric one-dimensional relativistic problems yield two-sided estimates for the breaking time. Some of the computations were performed on the “Chebyshev” supercomputer (Moscow State University).
