Reduced Vlasov-Maxwell simulations
Abstract
In this paper we review two different numerical methods for Vlasov-Maxwell simulations. The first method is based on a coupling between a Discontinuous Galerkin (DG) Maxwell solver and a Particle-In-Cell (PIC) Vlasov solver. The second method only uses a DG approach for the Vlasov and Maxwell equations. The Vlasov equation is first reduced to a space-only hyperbolic system thanks to a reduction method proposed recently by the authors. The two numerical methods are implemented using OpenCL in order to achieve high performance on recent Graphic Processing Units (GPU).
