“…Many helicon devices operate at low pressure (∼0.5 Pa), strong magnetic field (∼1 kG), and high power (∼kW), as shown in table 1. To date, numerical simulation studies focused only on wave propagation and power deposition, whereas ionization and transport processes have usually been neglected [10,17,[22][23][24]. To the best of our knowledge, simulations with a background magnetic field over 500 G and a pressure less than 1 Pa in the same time, including power deposition, transport processes, and ionization processes, have not been reported, although these parameters can be realized experimentally.…”
