| Abstract: | In this article we present a particle method for solving numerically the one‐dimensional Vlasov‐Maxwell equations. This method is based on the formulation by characteristics. We perform the error analysis and we investigate the properties of this scheme. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Numer Methods Partial Differential Eq, 2009 |
