Originally the library used Fortran and was +restricted to CPUs, but C++ ports were added over time to take +advantage of GPU-offloading afforded by the AMReX library. Eventually +as the development of the two codes diverged, the C++ ports of the +Microphysis were split off into the AMReX-Astrophysics Microphysics +library. Today, the library is completely written in C++ and relies +on the AMReX data structures. + +# Design + +Porting many classic solvers from old Fortran to C++ + +header-only library as much as possible + +C++17 + +pynucastro integration + + +# Capabilities + + + +# Unit tests / examples + + +# References + From aff4225937bdab8e19a170a611cc8abd05442a47 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael Zingale Date: Sun, 1 Dec 2024 12:52:09 -0500 Subject: [PATCH 2/2] fix title --- paper/paper.md | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/paper/paper.md b/paper/paper.md index b293cd524..0c24b94d3 100644 --- a/paper/paper.md +++ b/paper/paper.md @@ -1,5 +1,6 @@ --- -title: 'pynucastro: an interface to nuclear reaction rates and code generator for reaction network equations' +title: 'AMReX-Astrophysics Microphysics: A set of microphysics routines for astrophysical simulation codes +based on the AMReX library' tags: - nuclear @@ -14,7 +15,7 @@ authors: affiliations: -date: 27 January 2018 +date: 01 January 2025 bibliography: paper.bib ---
