6. Next-Generation Realism in Extreme Astrophysical Plasma Simulations with Entity

Jens Mahlmann (Dartmouth College)

In this talk, I will introduce Entity, a community-developed, open-source, GPU-accelerated particle-in-cell framework for large-scale simulations of collisionless plasmas. Entity’s grid-agnostic architecture and use of the Kokkos performance portability library enable efficient execution across CPU and GPU platforms, making it a versatile tool for studying plasma environments from laboratory...

20. Zeltron: From Solar-Wind Expansion to Extreme Astrophysical Plasmas

Jesse Vos (KU Leuven), Maximilien Péters de Bonhome (KU Leuven)

Zeltron is a relativistic particle-in-cell code that has played a central role in advancing our understanding of particle acceleration and radiation in a wide range of plasma environments, from solar to extreme astrophysical plasmas. Through large-scale kinetic simulations of relativistic magnetic reconnection, Zeltron has provided key insights into the origin of nonthermal particle...
