Modifications to Swisdak (2013)'s rejection sampling algorithm for a Maxwell-J\"uttner distribution in particle simulations
Abstract
Modifications to Swisdak [Phys. Plasmas 20, 062110 (2013)]'s rejection sampling algorithm for drawing a Maxwell-J\"uttner distribution in particle simulations are presented. Handy approximations for e-folding points and a linear slope in the envelope function are proposed, to make the algorithm self-contained and more efficient.
