Abstract The direct implicit particle-in-cell is a powerful kinetic method for researching plasma characteristics. However, it is time-consuming to obtain the future electromagnetic field in such a method since the field equations contain time-dependent matrix coefficients. In this work, we propose to explicitly push particles and obtain the future electromagnetic field based on the information about the particles in the future. The new method retains the form of implicit particle pusher, but the future field is obtained by solving the traditional explicit equation. Several numerical experiments, including the motion of charged particle in electromagnetic field, plasma sheath, and free diffusion of plasma into vacuum, are implemented to evaluate the performance of the method. The results demonstrate that the proposed method can suppress finite-grid-instability resulting from the coarse spatial resolution in electron Debye length through the strong damping of high-frequency plasma oscillation, while accurately describe low-frequency plasma phenomena, with the price of losing the numerical stability at large time-step. We believe that this work is helpful for people to research the bounded plasma by using particle-in-cell simulations.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
