2nd European Phantom code family users workshop
2025
2025
How do stars and planets form? How do black holes accrete? How does dust form in the winds of giant stars? How does the common envelope get ejected?
All of these questions can be answered using Phantom, a smoothed particle hydrodynamics code, MCFOST, a class-leading radiative transfer code originally developed at the University of Grenoble-Alpes, and Shamrock, a GPU-first SPH code in the Phantom family.
We are delighted to host the 2nd European Phantom code family users workshop in 2025, also known as the 7th Phantom users workshop
1. To consolidate development efforts
2. To set a roadmap for development priorities
3. To grow the user community, and especially to encourage sideways interaction between users
We will set each afternoon of the workshop as a hackfest, to collaboratively implement new features and tests
Dates: 2nd-6th June 2025
Venue: IPAG, Grenoble, France
The conference schedule is available below.
Each day will feature a series of science talks in the morning, with afternoons focused around collaborative hack sessions.
