pynucastro: A Python Library for Nuclear Astrophysics
Alexander Smith Clark, Eric T. Johnson, Zhi Chen +6
We describe pynucastro 2.0, an open source library for interactively creating and exploring astrophysical nuclear reaction networks. We demonstrate new methods for approximating ra…
Practical Effects of Integrating Temperature with Strang Split Reactions
M. Zingale, M. P. Katz, D. E. Willcox +1
For astrophysical reacting flows, operator splitting is commonly used to couple hydrodynamics and reactions. Each process operates independent of one another, but by staggering the…
Preparing Nuclear Astrophysics for Exascale
Max P. Katz, Ann Almgren, Maria Barrios Sazo +7
Astrophysical explosions such as supernovae are fascinating events that require sophisticated algorithms and substantial computational power to model. Castro and MAESTROeX are nucl…
The Castro AMR Simulation Code: Current and Future Developments
M. Zingale, A. S. Almgren, M. Barrios Sazo +7
We describe recent developments to the Castro astrophysics simulation code, focusing on new features that enable our simulations of X-ray bursts. Two highlights of Castro's ongoing…
Quantification of Incertitude in Black Box Simulation Codes
Alan C. Calder, Melissa M. Hoffman, Donald E. Willcox +3
We present early results from a study addressing the question of how one treats the propagation of incertitude, that is, epistemic uncertainty, in input parameters in astrophysical…
pynucastro: an interface to nuclear reaction rates and code generator for reaction network equations
Donald E. Willcox, Michael Zingale
pynucastro addresses two needs in the field of nuclear astrophysics: visual exploration of nuclear reaction rates or networks and automated code generation for integrating reaction…
