SPACE CoE and NCC Czechia are inviting you to a series of three webinars that will be held online in the upcoming months. The first event is scheduled for 17 September 2024 and will introduce two advanced simulation tools: BHAC (Black Hole Accretion Code) and FIL (Frankfurt/IllinoisGRMHD).
BHAC is a state-of-the-art code designed to simulate accretion flows into compact objects. It is a multidimensional general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics code based on the MPI-AMRVAC framework. This code can solve the equations of ideal general relativistic magnetohydrodynamics in one, two, or three dimensions on stationary spacetimes using an efficient block-based approach. During the webinar, you will receive a brief introduction on how to use and run your first simulation with BHAC. Additionally, recent developments related to the code within the SPACE CoE will be presented briefly.
FIL is designed to simulate binary neutron star collisions using high-order finite difference methods and tabulated EOS (Equation of State). It is an extension of the publicly available Illinois GRMHD module from the Einstein Toolkit (ET). The tutorial will explain how to compile the ET and run some simple benchmarking simulations using FIL.
