Code Development
I have authored three coding projects to meet the need of my own research. They are not made publicly avaiable due to group policy.
- synline (C++)
Synline is a program written in C++ that performs raytracing along the line-of-sight direction for molecular emisison lines. It takes 2D axisymmetric simulation result from the Magnetohydrodynamic simulation code Zeus-TW (in spherical coordinate) and outputs synthetic image cubes for imaging and analysis.- An Array class is wrritten as the basic data structure.
- MPI parallel computing is leveraged to speed up the computation.
-
outflow_visualization (MATLAB)
Outflow_visualization projects contain MATLAB functions for visualizing and analyzing outflow simulations from (1) the Zeus-TW program and (2) post-processed synthetic images generated by the synline program. - chemistry-Mate (Python)
Utility codes that help us work with the chemical evolution code by our colaborator Máté Ádámkovics. It includes (1) a parser to parse and convert the reactions network file into a python code kinetic.py for computation, and (2) simple visualizing scripts to examine the output abundances.
