-fdtd/-clouds: Properties of nonrelativistic clouds of charge

This section enables the computation with nonrelativistic cloud charges. As of today (October 2004) this PIC computation is not yet fully finished. Since the planned computations are not yet fully implemented, we do not even document the usage of what is available. What is available is the ejection of clouds of charge, the computation of the induced electromagnetic fields of these charges, and the integration of the lorentz-forces on these clouds.

If a 'Particle in Cell' computation is badly needed, contact Warner Bruns Field Computations. It might be that by the date that you read this, what you need is already available.
