SOFTWARE DEVELOPED BY NORDITA

Computer software developed and maintained by Nordita

As part of their research, several Nordita scientists develop code, either original software or contributions to common software projects.

The Pencil-Code

A high-order finite-difference code for compressible hydrodynamic flows with magnetic fields.
Nordita developer: Axel Brandenburg &al

MeMC

The MeMC is an open-source software package for monte-carlo simulation of elastic shells. The package can be useful to study the mechanics of biological nano-vesicles e.g. Exosomes.
Nordita developer: Vipin Agrawal, Vikash Pandey

Software by developers that have left Nordita:

PlasmaBox

PlasmaBox is a collection of simulation modules written in modern C++14/Python3 to model astrophysical plasmas.
Nordita developer: Joonas Nättilä

GAMBIT

A global fitting code for generic Beyond the Standard Model theories, designed to allow fast and easy definition of new models, observables, likelihoods, scanners and backends physics codes.
Nordita developer: Anders Kvellestad

hi_class

A Boltzmann code to predict cosmological observables (cosmic microwave background, large scale structure of the universe) for general dark energy models and alternative theories of gravity.
Nordita developer: Miguel Zumalacarregui

FG2

2D high-order finite difference code for GPU, implemented in CUDA C. 60x speed up compare to codes running on a single CPU core.
Nordita developer: Chi-kwan Chan

SG2

2D spectral Galerkin method for GPU, implemented in CUDA C. 20x speed up compare to single CPU core.
Nordita developer: Chi-kwan Chan

XNS

A code for axisymmetric equilibrium configurations of differentially rotating Neutron Stars with toroidal magnetic field.
Nordita developer: Niccolo' Bucciantini
