The `RAMP_INIT`/`PULSE_INIT` parameter inside `laser.param` that controls how far from the plateau / peak the laser pulse is initialized still causes major confusion in my opinion. @PrometheusPi said he is...

I think it would be really helpful if we had an easy option of accessing the **relative global domain position** in density profiles. It exists already partly for particle filters...

One of the command line options of picongpu `--validate` can in principle validate all the command line options that are specified in the `.cfg` files. This validation is still pretty...

This PR contains a Python tool for estimating the memory consumption of a simulation box, given that it is rectangular. The tool is aimed at helping with simulation preparation. However,...

I encountered a certain case on Cori KNL nodes where a WarpX setup that likely ran out of memory reported a `bus error` instead. The binary was compiled as `warpx.2d.MPI.OMP.DP.PDP.OPMD.PSATD.QED`...

To optimize communication across MPI ranks when running WarpX with the PSATD solver, data is recently cast to single precision-before float before copying which saves bandwidth. However, a temporary multifab...

Dear all, I noticed that when accessing an adios variable with `[]` for slicing in numpy style the stepping functionality is missing. For numpy arrays you can access every `N`th...

One of my 512 node simulations on Perlmutter crashed with the following error: ``` MPICH ERROR [Rank 409] [job id 3072903.0] [Wed Aug 31 00:41:07 2022] [nid001780] - Abort(740940175) (rank...

Hi, I have been trying to run some large-scale simulations using foil targets with a lot of vacuum around. To gauge the memory usage, I used the memory calculator I...

Currently, particles are initialized everywhere in the box inside the bounds of `zmin, zmax, xmin, ...` if they are set. Otherwise, these bounds are expanded to the full box size,...
