CITA FLASH Workshop
Wed Mar 23 and Thu Mar 24, 2005, CITA

The FLASH code is a general-purpose, parallel, adaptive mesh, reactive hydrodynamics code which is available to the research community. Members from the FLASH center will hold a two-day workshop at CITA on using the FLASH code for astrophysical problems of interest to CITAzens.

If you are interested, please contact Jonathan Dursi (ljdursi at cita.utoronto.ca); a participant list will be added to this page.

Note: Getting access to the FLASH code takes a couple of days; if you want to have your own copy to play with during the workshop, please register for the code now so it'll be approved in plenty of time for the workshop.

Note 2: Once you get the FLASH code, I have a site file for compiling and running on the McKenzie cluster as a .tar.gz file here.
