• Resumen

  • A Monte Carlo (MC) technique useful for calculation of the high energy tail of the distribution function (d.f) is proposed. The well known MC technique for simulation in rarely visited region splits the real history of the particle, that has entered in this region, in N subhystories with weights 1/N. But the lucky event for entering must be waited to happen during the simulation. A presentation of the d.f is found here, which allows, knowing the d.f in the low (common) energy region, to simulate only high energy events. This technique can be used for example when gate current in submicrometer MOS devices is calculated.
