Athelas: Astrophysical Transients with Hydrodynamics and Emission using a Lagrangian Arbitrary order Scheme

Athelas is a modern radiation hydrodynamics code for simulating astrophysical transients.

Key Features

  • Gray two moment radiation transport

  • Lagrangian hydrodynamics

  • High order discontinuous Galerkin methods

  • Fully coupled IMEX time integration

  • Radioactive heating from Nickel and Cobalt decay including gammas and positrons.

  • Saha ionization with feedback into the equation of state

  • Shared memory parallelism with Kokkos
