OBJECTIVE 1
Enable unprecedented plasma simulations and associated extreme-data analytics to address plasma physics grand challenges that are impossible to solve on current extreme-scale systems and require exascale computing
OBJECTIVE 2
Maximise the performance of four European plasma codes (BIT, GENE, PIConGPU, Vlasiator) in terms of parallel performance and efficiency on European exascale and pre-exascale systems, building on algorithmic advances as well as on programming model and library developments.
OBJECTIVE 3
Establish and ensure an integrated HPC software engineering approach for deploying, verifying, and validating extreme-scale kinetic plasma simulations that can serve as a community standard.

HAPPENING IN PLASMA-PEPSC
Latest news
The team members of Plasma-PEPSC conduct Face to Face meetings twice a year to discuss the progress and plan the project activities for the subsequent semester. This group picture is from our last meeting held at Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC), in April 2024. Our team at BSC also organized[…]
Plasma-PEPSC is looking forward to participate in MNHACK24 at Barcelona Supercomputing Center, on October 7th-9th (https://bsc.es/news/events/mnhack24-6th-marenostrum-hackathon…). All teams will have access to MareNostrum 5’s accelerated and general-purpose partitions to install and test their codes on the latest European pre-exascale cluster (MN5).
