摘要：

In this paper we consider a spatially homogeneous weakly collisional particle system, the state of which is described by a nonlinear kinetic equation with the Landau-Fokker-Planck collision integral and external heat sources. A quasi-linear diffusion operator and an external electric field are used as heating operators. Particle heating and acceleration and the runaway effect are analyzed. The numerical method used to study this phenomenon is the direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method. © 2014, Pleiades Publishing, Ltd.
