PMCODE: Particle-Mesh code for cosmological simulations

Anatoly Klypin & Jon Holtzman
Department of Astronomy, New Mexico State University

Abstract: Particle-Mesh (PM) codes are still very useful tools for testing predictions of cosmological models in cases when extra high resolution is not very important. We release for public use a cosmological PM N-body code. The code is very fast and simple. We provide a complete package of routines needed to set initial conditions, to run the code, and to analyze the results. The package allows you to simulate models with numerous combinations of parameters: open/flat/closed background, with or without the cosmological constant, different values of the Hubble constant, with or without hot neutrinos, tilted or non-tilted initial spectra, different amount of baryons.
Subject headings: cosmology: theory - dark matter - large-scale structure of the universe
