Geodesic Simulation in Kerr Spacetime

singularity

This project contains a C code to simulate geodesic trajectories in Kerr spacetime, which describe a rotating black hole.

Theory

For more details on the operation and underlying theory, please see my paper.

Usage

Make sure you have GCC-1X installed on your system.

make avx2

If you are using a Intel Knight Landing or anyother system that can use AVX512 :

make avx512

Paraview is needed to plot the results

TODO

-Make it work with bigger Mass and more metrics
-Paper correct potential mistakes and add bibliography\
