Bolt: A Fast Solver for Kinetic Theories Using a High-Resolution Constrained Transport Scheme [Slides]

Our understanding of collisionless and semi-collisional plasmas in the nonlinear regime is limited by the expense of computing solutions numerically. Bolt is a fast, GPU-accelerated code for rapidly computing such solutions with accurate transport and an approximate collision operator. Such calculations are relevant to both problems in astrophysics, such as heat conduction and magnetic reconnection in accretion disks around black holes, and also to programmatic interests at LANL. The bolt code paper, demonstrating accuracy via a suite of test problems calculated on kodiak, is currently in preparation.

bolt: A GPU-Accelerated Solver for Marginally Collisional Kinetic Physics Using a High- Resolution Constrained Transport Scheme

Collisionless and marginally collisional plasmas are very expensive to simulate due to high dimensionality and large scale separations, especially in global problems with additional length scales. bolt addresses this challenge by achieving high performance on GPUs using the arrayfire performance portability library. We have demonstrated accuracy on a range of test problems, and the bolt code paper is currently in preparation.
