The Edge Simulation Laboratory is a multi-institutional project funded by the U.S. Department of EnergyÕs Office of Fusion Energy Sciences (OFES) and Office of Advanced Scientific Computing Research (OASCR). The purpose of the project is to develop kinetic simulation tools for fusion edge plasmas based on continuum methods (solving for the particle distribution function on a grid in velocity and configuration space).
