Computing

The KIPAC community includes Stanford physics and SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory researchers along with many outside collaborators.  Access and effective use of computational resources is central to nearly all the scientific activities at KIPAC. These include theoretical simulations, data analysis and experimental simulations all of which call for CPU, storage and network infrastructure.

KIPAC researchers have access to parallel computing clusters, large memory machines, parallel file systems, and visualization capabilities.  We have central software installations, licensed packages, network disk storage and backup.  We have substantial allocations at Stanford's SRCF and SLAC's computing center.  These resources and information needed to get started are on our KIPAC computing wiki.
