Graphic Processor Realization of the Formal Solution of the Problem of Radiation Transfer in the Neutron Star Atmosphere

Abstract

The realization (on the CUDA platform) of the search for the formal solution to the problem of radiation transfer in the strongly magnetized plasma in the atmosphere of a neutron star on graphic processors with the CUDA architecture. The solution is obtained using the Galerkin method with finite elements. The realization of graphic processors makes it possible to substantially accelerate computations in constructing models for the atmospheres of neutron stars.
