Castro

an adaptive mesh, astrophysical radiation hydrodynamics simulation code

Castro is an adaptive-mesh compressible radiation hydrodynnamics code for astrophysical flows. Castro supports a general equation of state, full Poisson gravity, reactive flows.

Getting Started

To build Castro, you need a copy of the BoxLib library:

https://ccse.lbl.gov/BoxLib/index.html

(optionally) for Radiation, you'll want to get the CastroRadiation source too.

There is a User's Guide in Castro/UsersGuide/ (type make to build from LaTeX source) that will guide you through running your first problem. A PDF of the User's Guide can be found at
