We consider a two - stage ABPE, with an electron beam driven ionization region and an E × B acceleration zone. We construct a 1D for the ambient air generated plasma, formulating and solving the appropriate particle, energy, and momentum conservation equations in the presence of complex air chemistry and exploit kinetic particle-in-cell (PIC) techniques to simulate the ionization and acceleration regions of the ABPE.
