Description
Collsionless astrophysical and space plasmas cover regions that typically display a separation of scales that exceeds any code's capabilities.The muphyII code utilizes a hierarchy of models with different inherent scales, unified in an adaptive framework that allows stand-alone use of models as well as a model-based dynamic and adaptive domain decomposition.This requires careful treatment of inner-domain model boundaries for model coupling, and robust time stepping algorithms, especially with the use of electron subcycling.
