| Abstract: |
We investigate the performance of a hybrid plasma solver on
the test problem of an ion beam. The parallel solver is based on cell
centered finite differences in space, and a predictor–corrector
leapfrog scheme in time.
The implementation is done in the FLASH software framework.
It is shown that the solver conserves energy well over time,
and that the parallelization is efficient (it exhibits weak scaling). |
