This $1,684,551 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Mathematical and Physical Sciences (CFDA 47.049) program supports the development of an open-source, high-performance cyberinfrastructure for simulating cosmic events like binary neutron star and black hole-neutron star mergers. The "FRAMEWORKS: E=MC2 - ENABLING MULTIMESSENGER ASTROPHYSICS THROUGH COMMUNITY-DRIVEN CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE" project aims to create new simulation codes and integrate them into the Einstein Toolkit, enabling multi-messenger observations that provide critical insights into fundamental physics. Key deliverables include GPU-enabled neutrino simulations, a relativistic hydrodynamics equation of state module, and advanced code generation tools. The project involves sub-awards to the University of Idaho, Louisiana State University, University of Texas at Austin, and Rochester Institute of Technology to support the development and community engagement efforts.
