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.

  1. 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.
  2. 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.

  3. 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.
