ALaDyn
ALaDyn (Acceleration by Laser and Dynamics of charged particles) is a PIC code firstly described in ALaDyn: A High-Accuracy PIC code for the Maxwell-Vlasov Equations by C. Benedetti et al., published on IEEE Transactions on Plasma Science, 36 4, 1790-1798 (2008) and then again in the update Charge preserving high order PIC schemes by P. Londrillo et al., published on Nucl. Instrum. Meth. A, 620 1, 28-35 (2010). PWFA modules have been presented in Numerical investigation of beam-driven PWFA in quasi-nonlinear regime by P. Londrillo et al., published on Nucl. Instrum. Meth. A, 740 (2014).
To date, main usage of the code has been carried on in simulating:
Laser WakeField Acceleration (LWFA Laser driven),
Plasma WakeField Acceleration (PWFA Beam driven),
Target Normal Sheath Acceleration (TNSA Interaction with solid targets).
This newer version, in part rewritten from scratch, is released as is, without any warranty, and will be maintained here on GitHub. A new publication is currently underway to describe progresses on this new code. If you use ALaDyn, you're kindly required to cite the Zenodo DOI of the latest release: .

How to build
ALaDyn is built using CMake.
We support building ALaDyn on almost all sane systems. Here you can find a guide to build the code on many different OS configurations.
appveyor and travis recipes can also help to understand how to build the code.
