Combination of Eulerian, adaptive mesh magnetohydrodynamics, ray-tracing radiative transfer, and gas self-gravity in the Flash code with direct N-body evolution of particles, stellar evolution, treatment of binaries and other AMUSE capabilities is the goal of the Torch project.
With the completion of Joshua Wall’s thesis this spring, initial operational capability of Torch has been achieved, as documented in Wall et al. (2019, http://arxiv.org/abs/1901.01132). Stellar feedback modules including stellar winds, ionizing radiation, and supernovae are further documented in Wall’s thesis (https://www.dropbox.com/s/c0qh1no85y1jnxf/J_Wall-Thesis_final.pdf?dl=0) and a paper in preparation. The code of Torch was made open source on completion of the thesis.
In order to encourage wide use and improvement of Torch, we will hold a workshop on
28-30 August 2019 (Wed-Fri) at the Center for Computational Astrophysics
of the Flatiron Institute in New York City to introduce its structure and use, and to assist potential users in design and implementation of projects applying its capabilities. The SOC consists of Joshua Wall, Steven McMillan, and myself. We encourage attendance by early career researchers including students who might find it useful, and ask recipients of this announcement to distribute it further to potential attendees.
There will be no fee for participation in this workshop, thanks to support from the CCA, including provision of daily breakfasts and lunches, and an evening reception on Wednesday.
Please send expressions of interest in participation to Mordecai-Mark Mac Low (mordecai at amnh.org), with a short description of any particular research goals. Formal registration will be requested in a few weeks by the CCA.
