| PROGRAM SUMMARY | ||
|---|---|---|
| Manuscript Title: The parallel implementation of the one-dimensional Fourier transformed Vlasov-Poisson system | ||
| Authors: Bengt Eliasson | ||
| Program title: vlasov | ||
| Catalogue identifier: ADVQ | ||
| Journal reference: Comput. Phys. Commun. 170(2005)205 | ||
| Programming language: FORTRAN 90 with Message Passing Interface (MPI). | ||
| Computer: Sun Ultra Sparc; HP 9000/785; HP IPF (Itanium Processor Family) ia64 Cluster; PCs cluster. | ||
| Operating system: Sun Solaris; HPUX; Read Hat Linux. | ||
| RAM: Uses typically of the order 105 - 106 double precision numbers. | ||
| Keywords: Fourier method, Vlasov equation, Domain decomposition, Schur complement. | ||
| PACS: 52.65.-y, 52.25.Dg, 07.05.Tp, 02.70.-c, 02.70.Hm. | ||
| Classification: 19.3. | ||
Nature of problem: Kinetic simulations of collisionless electron-ion plasmas. | ||
Solution method: A Fourier method in velocity space, a pseudospectral method in space and a fourth-order Runge-Kutta scheme in time. | ||
Restrictions: The program uses periodic boundary conditions in space. | ||
Running time: Depends strongly on the problem size, typically a few hours if only electron dynamics is considered and longer if both ion and electron dynamics is important. |
