UCLA Parallel PIC Framework

چکیده
The UCLA Parallel PIC Framework (UPIC) has been developed to provide trusted components for the rapid construction of new, parallel Particle-in-Cell (PIC) codes. The Framework uses object-based ideas in Fortran95, and is designed to provide support for various kinds of PIC codes on various kinds of hardware. The focus is on student programmers. The Framework supports multiple numerical methods, different physics approximations, different numerical optimizations and implementations for different hardware. It is designed with “defensive” programming in mind, meaning that it contains many error checks and debugging helps. Above all, it is designed to hide the complexity of parallel processing. It is currently being used in a number of new Parallel PIC codes. PACS: 2 .70 .N~~ 52.65.h Corresponding author: Viktor K.

Modeling of laser wakefield acceleration in Lorentz boosted frame using EM-PIC code with spectral solver
Simulating laser wakefield acceleration (LWFA) in a Lorentz boosted frame in which the plasma drifts towards the laser with vb can speedup the simulation by factors of 2 b = (1 v b/c) . In these simulations the relativistic drifting plasma inevitably induces a high frequency numerical instability that contaminates the interested physics. Various approaches have been proposed to mitigate this in...
متن کاملA Generic Approach for Developing Highly Scalable Particle-Mesh Codes for GPUs
We present a general framework for GPU-based low-latency data transfer schemes that can be used for a variety of particle-mesh algorithms [8]. This framework allows to hide the latency of the data transfer between GPU-accelerated computing nodes by interleaving it with the kernel execution on the GPU. We discuss as an example the fully relativistic particle-in-cell (PiC) code PIConGPU [5] curre...

Two stream instability in plasma is simulated by PIC method. The execution time of the sequential and parallizable sections of the program is measured. The sequential program is parallelized with the help of the MPI functions. Then, the execution time of the sequential program versus the number of the grid points and the execution time of the parallel program on 3 and 5 processors versus the nu...

متن کاملIon Propulsion Simulations Using Parallel Supercomputer
A parallel, three-dimensional electrostatic PIC code is developed for largescale electric propulsion simulations using parallel supercomputers. Two algorithms are implemented in the code, a standard finite-difference (FD) PIC and a newly developed immersed-finite-element (IFE) PIC. The IFE-PIC is designed to handle complex boundary conditions accurately while maintaining the computational speed...
