Workshop at Columbia.

Venue

  • The workshop will take place in the Conference Room of the Center for Theoretical Physics at Columbia. The Conference Room (Room 907) is located on the 9th floor of the Physics building (Pupin Laboratories)
  • Street address: 538 West 120th Street, New York, NY 10027
  • Note that the main entrance is on the Campus Level (5th floor, south side) as indicated here:

  • You can enter Campus at 116th/Broadway. There is also the possibility of entering Pupin Hall from 120th/Broadway. In this case, enter through the North West Corner Building and take the stairs/escalators up to the Campus level, exit the building and enter Pupin through the main entrance.


Meeting minutes (delete once done):

  • Daniel and Philipp have discussed a bit what they want to cover and

prepared a draft and to use a wiki (suggest ET wiki, all agree)

    • a page is here:

  • Daniel will provide some local information
  • interest in radiation transport and its current limitations
  • interest to get an overview about HydroFunHPC code (design idea, iintention) and FunHPC in general
    • Currently HydroFunHPC has all the pieces but fails (likely in con2prim) with NaNs on the surface of a TOV star.
    • ultimately this requires integration with Carpet to overlap more communication and computation
  • plan:
    • kickoff talks on Monday
    • Philipp to talk about CT
    • Daniel to talk about vector potential method and MHD con2prim
    • Christian and David to talk about M1
    • Erik and Roland to talk about (Hydro)FunHPC

Kick-Off Talks

  • Erik: FunHPC -- current state, towards AMR, towards KNL
  • Roland: HydroFunToy -- code design and capability
