Software & Databases

published on , updated on


The CRAL personnel is involved in various software developments from numerical simulations or modelisation to data analysis and data reduction, contributing to existing world-wide used software (adding functionalities or optimizing some parts) or developing complete new software. A great number of these software is available for the community and may be found below.


Some of them may be downloaded from the CRAL gitlab server.

Numerical simulations and modelization software:

Sofware Contact CRAL Description Language
A-MaZe Rolf Walder Code package to compute 3D magnetic flows, 3D NLTE radiative transfer, and synthetic spectra Fortran
LENSTOOL Johan Richard A gravitational lensing software for modeling mass distribution of galaxies and clusters C
PHANTOM Guillaume Laibe A smoothed particle hydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics code for astrophysics Fortran
RAMSES Benoit Commerçon & Joki Rosdahl Adaptive Mesh Refinement hydro code for self-gravitating astrophysical flows Fortran
RASCAS Leo Michel-Dansac & Jeremy Blaizot Massively parallel Monte Carlo code for resonant line transfer in AMR simulations Fortran
