The equations essentially describe the path of a non-relativistic charged particle rotating about a magnetic field line, and experiencing a periodic electric field impulse. atae@spva.physics.imperial.ac.uk (Dr Ata Etemadi) Type 'make' to install in current directory. Running the program with -h flag gives usage info. This program computes the stochastic webs produced by the Chernikov equations (see Nature Vol. 326, April 1987) and produces a PGM image based on occupancy of cells. The equations essentially describe the path of a non-relativistic charged particle rotating about a magnetic field line, and experiencing a periodic electric field impulse. You need to read the paper to really understand the parameters, in brief however: Alpha is the period between impulses K is the strength of the impulse it receives U is the phase of the particle V is the velocity of the particle The other parameters are specific to the program namely: s is the scaling factor n is the number of iterations r is the number of rows in the resulting image c is the number of columns in the resulting image adios amigos Ata <(|)>.
