LCODE is a free software for simulationplasma wakefield acceleration based on QSA.

Project description

lcodePy

Overview

LCODE is a free software for numerical simulation of particle beam-driven plasma wakefield acceleration. LCODE is based on the quasistatic approximation, capable of simulation in 2D and 3D geometry, and can use GPUs and CPUs.

For now, this under active development. This is a complete overhaul of the old C version in Python.

Instalation

We use Anaconda and we recommend installing lcode in a separate environment. Any other python installation should work fine, but has not been tested.

  • Create a new environment and install the dependencies:
conda create -n lcode-env -c conda-forge numba numpy scipy matplotlib mpi4py

or

conda env create -f conda-env.yml  

where conda-env.yml is avalible in sources.

  • Acivate the new environment:
conda activate lcode-env
  • Optional: in order to run simulations on GPU, add cupy and other necessary packages to the line of dependencies when creating a new eviroment. Check in advance if you have the drivers for your GPU installed. It is not necessary to install CUDA Toolkit in advance. For any other questions about cupy, please check https://docs.cupy.dev/en/stable/install.html
conda create -n lcode-env -c conda-forge numba numpy scipy matplotlib cupy
  • Install lcode:
pip install lcode

or download sources from GitHub and run the forlowing command in downloaded directory:

pip install .

You can also find a more mature 2D version of LCODE at http://lcode.info/.
