XOOPIC (X11-based Object-Oriented Particle-In-Cell)

XOOPIC is a two-dimensional 3-velocity particle-in-cell simulator. It can handle electrostatic and electromagnetic models, has a large variety of boundary conditions, supports multiple gasses and gas chemistry, and is easily reconfigurable via an input file.

This is a standard ./configure, make, make install system. Start with the script 'run_conf.sh' - it is a nicer way to pass arguments to configure and it is the same for xoopic and xgrafix (you need to install xgrafix first) once you have edited run_conf.sh to fit your needs, use it to configure xgrafix, then install it:

$> sh run_conf.sh
$> make && sudo make install # note only sudo if you need root privileges to write the destination

then once that completes, use the same run_conf.sh to configure xoopic:

$> sh run_conf.sh
$> make && cp xg/xoopic /path/to/where/I/want/xoopic

That should do it!

COMPLETE BUILD on new SYSTEM

To build XOOPIC on new system do the folowing:

 - make distclean
 - aclocal ; autoconf ; automake
 - ./run_conf.sh
 - make 

The compiled XOOPIC file is in xg/xoopic

Optionally you could do:

 - make install    # require root privileges to install to /usr/local/....

or

 - cp xg/xoopic /path/to/where/I/want/xoopic

Dependencies:

building and running xgrafix/xoopic depend on the following headers/libraries/programs:

X11, Xpm, Tcl/Tk, gcc, imagemagick, bison

optional xoopic dependencies:

Fortran MPI for parallel runs HDF5 for parallel or high performance dump files libpng for png diagnostics fftw fftw3

dependencies can be installed on Ubuntu (or likely any Debian based distro) with the command:

sudo aptitude install gcc g++ gfortran build-essential automake \
    tk-dev imagemagick bison libx11-dev libxpm-dev libpng-dev \
    fftw-dev  libfftw3-dev h5utils hdf5-tools libhdf5-serial-*\

the first two lines are necessary, the last installs optional fftw/hdf5 dependencies

On Fedora, these dependencies can be installed with:

sudo yum install gcc gcc-gfortran gcc-c++ automake libX11-devel libXpm-devel \
        ImageMagick bison tk-devel libpng-devel \
        hdf5 hdf5-devel

On SUSE, install the following packages with your package manager: gcc gcc-c++ gcc-fortran automake xorg-x11-devel make tk-devel bison libpng-devel imagemagick hdf5 hdf5-devel
