abstract = {<p style="text-align: justify;">In this paper we present the modelling of elastic intra-species electron-electron
and inter-species electron-ion scattering in a plasma on the basis of the Fokker-Planck
collision operator. Taking into account the equivalence of this operator with a
stochastic differential equation, we propose a Particle-in-Cell based approach for the
numerical solution of the Fokker-Planck collision term. As we will see, the introduced
numerical concept allows the simulation of the collisional relaxation process in a fully
self-consistent fashion.</p>},
