2021 Rayleigh Hackathon
2021 Rayleigh Hackathon
24-28 May
31 May - 3 June (extension)
Virtual
Rayleigh is designed for the study of MHD turbulence and convection in spherical (and soon Cartesian) geometries using a pseudo-spectral approach and runs efficiently on O(10^5) cores. The software is freely available and may be downloaded from its CIG software page [download].
The majority of the time will be spent working on the code in an informal setting, individually or in small groups. Participants should have basic knowledge of how to either run or modify the code and applicable coding languages. Participants are expected to contribute to the code during the workshop and participate in discussions on future directions. See Technical Requirements.
Application Closes: May 15, 2021 CLOSED
Notification of Acceptance Begins: May 8, 2021 COMPLETE
