AthenaKit Documentation

AthenaKit is a Python toolkit for analyzing and visualizing simulation data from AthenaK — a performance-portable astrophysics code built on Kokkos.

Key Features

• Performance-portable — runs on both CPU and CUDA GPU via CuPy

• MPI-aware — distributes analysis across many ranks

• Rich data model — lazy evaluation of 50+ derived variables from raw dumps

• Flexible I/O — reads .bin, .athdf, .h5, and .pkl formats

• Built-in analysis — histograms, profiles, slices, and interpolation

• Visualization — slices, phase diagrams, and radial profiles via Matplotlib
