Hi, my name is Matt Beidler.

This is documentation for the Kinetic Orbit Runaway electrons Code (KORC), developed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory and written primarily by Leopoldo Carbajal. Mark Cianciosa, Diego del-Castillo-Negrete and I are currently the primary developers. The present version of the code follows relativistic electrons in general electric and magnetic fields under the full Lorentz force, collisions, and radiation losses.

The present version of the code is compiled and executed on the KNL nodes of the Cori supercomputer at NERSC.

@Note This documentation is presently under development. Please check back regularly for updates.

@todo Future plans for development

  1. More physically realistic initial distribution function
  2. Implement a guiding-center approximation
  3. Port to multiple computing platforms
  4. Porting to GPU architectures
  5. Coupling with extended-MHD codes to self-consistently evolve EM fields and RE distribution functions
