Abstract: Three-dimensional parallel Monte Carlo algorithm for modelling the electron avalanches in gases is developed. Parallel Implementation is made on supercomputers with MPP architecture and on hybrid supercomputers with Intel Xeon Phi coprocessors. The well-working library PARMONC is used to implement parallel computations. The use of the library enables fast calculation of functionals such as the number of particles in avalanche, first Townsend coefficient, drift velocity, etc.

Keywords: electron avalanche, Monte Carlo method, parallelization, supercomputer.
