Beschreibung:
  • In this work, we report on incorporating for the first time tree-algorithm based solvers into the molecular dynamics code, XMDYN. XMDYN was developed to describe the interaction of ultrafast X-ray pulses with atomic assemblies. It is also a part of the simulation platform, SIMEX, developed for computational single-particle imaging studies at the SPB/SFX instrument of the European XFEL facility. In order to improve the XMDYN performance, we incorporated the existing tree-algorithm based Coulomb solver, PEPC, into the code, and developed a dedicated tree-algorithm based secondary ionization solver, now also included in the XMDYN code. These extensions enable computationally efficient simulations of X-ray irradiated large atomic assemblies, e.g., large protein systems or viruses that are of strong interest for ultrafast X-ray science. The XMDYN-based preparatory simulations can now guide future single-particle-imaging experiments at the free-electron-laser facility, EuXFEL.
