Tldr This paper presents a characteristic mapping method for simulating kinetic plasmas with collisions, specifically handling source terms via sub-integral storage to achieve efficient integration. The proposed method achieves third-order convergence and demonstrates its effectiveness on various test cases, including shock tubes and nonlinear Landau damping for different Knudsen numbers.
