Description

PIConGPU is an advanced particle-in-cell simulation code designed to model laser-driven plasma accelerators. With the power of Exascale computing, PIConGPU enables the study of plasma accelerators with unparalleled resolution and physical detail. We will showcase our recent research on laser-driven acceleration of ions and electrons, with a focus on its applications in advanced accelerator design. We will also introduce our new python-based simulation input system built on the PICMI standard, which simplifies simulation setup and execution. Finally, we will present our implementation of complex workflows that are essential for optimizing particle accelerators, enhancing diagnostic tools, and enabling more accurate and realistic simulations.
