• Pseudospark discharge is a special kind of low pressure gas discharge working on the left hand of Paschen's curve 1,2 , which is widely used in the field of high power switching devices, electron beam sources and extreme ultraviolet light sources. In this paper, a simulation model based on the Particle in Cell and Monte Carlo method (PIC/MCC) is developed to investigate the initial phases of the single-gap pseudospark discharge. The model includes the external RLC circuit, and the influence of the numerical error are considered.
