TL;DR: In this article, a chronological history of relevant particle physics algorithms often employed in these conformal simulations is presented, along with a brief summary of major time-dependent electromagnetic solution methods.

TL;DR: The SHIELDS framework as discussed by the authors was developed to understand the dynamics of the surface charging environment (SCE), the hot (keV) electrons representing the source and seed populations for the radiation belts, on both macro-and micro-scale.

TL;DR: Compared to PIC codes on unstructured meshes, which have also been used for their flexibility in handling complex geometries but whose performance suffers from issues associated with data locality and indirect data access patterns, PIC code on multi-block structured meshes may offer the best compromise for capturing complexGeometries while also maintaining solution accuracy and computational efficiency.

TL;DR: In this article, a low-index, low-loss dielectric sandwiched between a patterned, two-dimensionally periodic, thin metallic layer and a metal backing was used for wide-band absorption of stray signals for THz packages.

TL;DR: In this article, a spoof surface plasmon assisted antenna is paired with a metamaterial enhanced bolometer structure in the formation of a THz focal plane array pixel, which shows high sensitivity at the desired operating frequency.
