Accelerated Cherenkov photon propagation for air shower simulations — •Dominik Baack and Jan Soedingrekso — TU Dortmund, Dortmund, Germany
In the simulation of air showers for IACTs with CORSIKA, induced through highly energetic cosmic rays, major parts of computing time are spent on the propagation of the Cherenkov radiation. With a high parallel approach, modern hardware can be used more efficiently and reduce the overall runtime requirements. With the usage of OpenCL, the code can be used on several platforms like GPUs or vectorized on the CPUs.
This talk gives an overview of the implementation and its future possibilities.
