摘要：
A kinetic model is reported computing the electron behavior in a hollow cathode discharge based on the Monte Carlo technique. It is a part of the PLASIMO modelling toolkit. The model allows the electrons to be closely followed while they travel and undergo collisions in the discharge. The Monte Carlo module was applied to the case of a HCD used as an excitation medium of atoms obtained by laser ablation. Results are obtained on the electron energy distribution function and the mean electron energy under typical discharge conditions. The output data and future development of the model and its applications are analyzed and discussed.
