Supercomputers allow researchers to discover previously unknown materials and to predict their properties based on theory. There is currently a great deal of interest in materials that could be used for producing renewable energy and for energy storage. Researchers from the University of Basel are using the Piz Daint supercomputer at CSCS to search for […]

The University of Basel, SIB and HPC-UGent (B) are organising a workshop on EasyBuild and Environment Modules (Lmod), with key contributors from Europe and USA.. EasyBuild is a software build and installation framework that allows you to manage (scientific) software on High Performance Computing (HPC) systems in an efficient way: EasyBuild and Lmod workshop: Mon […]
Supernovae are exploding stars. The light from the explosion and its remnants enable numerous conclusions to be drawn about the former star. To this day, however, it has not been possible to explain how these stellar explosions come about. Astrophysicist Matthias Liebendörfer from the University of Basel and his colleagues are getting to the bottom […]
