ExofastGpu

Library for GPU-accelerated transit light curve calculations.

For more information, see the ExofastGpu wiki

Features

  • Common algorithms for transit light curve modeling
  • High-performance code is one to two orders of magnitude faster on selected nVidia GPUs than a CPU core
  • Code also runs on CPUs without a GPU (either single or multi-core via OpenMP or TBB)
  • Routines easily accesible from C, C++, CUDA, and IDL

Warning

These routines have not been validated (yet). If you find bugs, validate a routine, or would like to contribute, please notify Eric Ford.
