TPIC: Energy-Conserving Space Plasma Simulations on GPU Supercomputers
arXiv cs.DC0 views
arXiv:2611.09624v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Artificial heating and numerical damping affect particle energization in kinetic space plasma simulations, even when the numerical scheme remains stable. Implicit and semi implicit energy conserving Particle-in-Cell (PIC) methods eliminate these errors in the discrete energy balance while relaxing explicit stability constraints. We present TPIC, a massively parallel implementation of the Energy Conserving Semi-Implicit Method (ECSIM) for GPU supercomputers. We extend the exact energy conservation in the ECSIM formulation to closed domains with conducting boundaries by deriving and canceling a spurious term in the discrete Poynting flux theorem. TPIC executes the complete particle and field cycle on NVIDIA and AMD GPUs, combining matrix-engine acceleration with asynchronous communication and computation. We validate TPIC in a variety of electrostatic and electrodynamic test cases relevant for space plasma physics applications, including quasineutral plasma expansion, two-stream instability, Whistler waves, Weibel instability, Whistler turbulence, and three-dimensional magnetic reconnection with conducting walls and 12.3 billion particles. We show that in all scenarios, TPIC agrees with the corresponding analytical theory or reference numerical results, and preserves the total system energy to machine precision. On 4,096 AMD GPUs, TPIC advances 1.9 trillion particles with 96.8\% weak scaling efficiency.
