PR #6588 added the possibility to reflect particles at the boundary. However, the implementation has several limitations that should be fixed or documented:
-
The charge/current is not self-consistently folded or deposited. In particular, in EM simulations, this will cause lack of charge conservation.
-
The code does not handle multiple reflections within one timestep.
