CosmoLattice 2.0
Abstract
This paper introduces , a major upgrade that substantially broadens the physical scope and computational capabilities of the code. It introduces lattice implementations of scalar fields non-minimally coupled to gravity through , as well as axion-like fields coupled to Abelian gauge sectors as . It also provides new procedures for generating specialized initial conditions, including scaling networks of cosmic defects ( strings and domain walls), and fields with arbitrary power spectra. The release also incorporates low-storage Runge-Kutta integrators for non-symplectic systems (suitable for non-minimal scalar kinetic terms as ), scalar-field simulations on reduced - and -dimensional lattices, new optimized gravitational-wave evolution, more flexible field and energy-density outputs, and GPU support that can accelerate simulations by a factor relative to CPU execution. Extensive documentation on the use of the code is provided on https://www.cosmolattice.com
