GPT/IBSimu Benchmarking Final Exam

Here are some ideas for a complete benchmarking simulation test between GPT and IBSimu. Both programs will be used to create the same simulation and (ideally) achieve the same results when everything (ionization, field maps, secondary electrons, etc.) are included.

What Should Be Included

Ionization Routine

• Ionization
  • Same ion production rate
  • Same ionization cross section for a given species
  • Same gas density profile (constant for GPT)
• Secondary electrons
  • Same energy distribution (SEDCS in GPT)
  • Secondary electron yield?
