openPMD example datasets

This repository contains examples of openPMD datasets, in three different geometries:

• 2D Cartesian
• 3D Cartesian
• Cylindrical with azimuthal decomposition ("thetaMode")

The structure.h5 is an openPMD 1.1.0 compliant file contains the bare bones structure with no associated data.

In order to obtain these datasets:

• Clone this repository

  git clone https://github.com/openPMD/openPMD-example-datasets.git

• Uncrompress the files

  cd openPMD-example-datasets
  tar -zxvf example-2d.tar.gz
  tar -zxvf example-3d.tar.gz
  tar -zxvf example-thetaMode.tar.gz
  ...

How were these files created?

Files created with the Particle-In-Cell code Warp

The files example-2d.tar.gz, example-3d.tar.gz and example-thetaMode.tar.gz were produced with the Particle-In-Cell code Warp. The resolution is intentionally very low, so as to produce data of manageable size.

The scripts that were used in order to produce these openPMD files from Warp can be found in the directory scripts/warp.

Examples created with the finite-element code FEMM

The files example-femm-3d.h5 and example-femm-thetaMode.h5 were produced using the finite-element code FEMM.

The scripts that were used in order to produce these openPMD files can be found in the directory scripts/femm.

Examples created with the Particle-In-Cell code PIConGPU

The files legacy_datasets.tar.gz were produced with the Particle-In-Cell code PIConGPU.
