# HeLaZ (Hermite-Laguerre Z-pinch solver, 2021)
To compile it check INSTALLATION.txt

How to run it

1. Be sure to have correct paths in local/dirs.inc for the different libraries
2. Compile from HeLaZ/ using make
3. To run the code, use HeLaZ/wk/local_run.m and run it to set up the parameters and the results folder
4. Then go to the results folder and launch HeLaZ using mpirun -np num_procs ./../../../bin/helaz num_p num_kr
5. You can obtain various plots and gifs using HeLaZ/wk/analysis_2D.m once the simulation is done. To select the correct output file, run parameters*.m with the corresponding simulation parameters and then run analysis_2D.m (everything with matlab from wk/)

// Comment : For some collision operators (Sugama and Full Coulomb) you have to run COSOlver from B.J.Frei first in order to generate the required matrices in HeLaZ/iCa folder.

# Road map
(Current version : 2.5)

0. Write MOLI matlab solver in Fortran using Monli1D as starting point

	0.0 go from 1D space to 2D fourier and from Hermite basis to Hermite-Laguerre basis

	0.1 implement linear Poisson equation in fourier space

	0.2 implement moment hierarchy linear terms

	0.3 RK4 time solver

	0.4 Benchmark with MOLI matlab results for Z-pinch (cf. kz_linear script)

	0.5 Load COSOlver matrices

	0.6 Benchmarks now include Dougherty, Lenard-Bernstein and Full Coulomb collision operators

1. Implementation of the non linear Poisson brackets term
