[MGI32-01] Current status of post-K Exploratory Challenge, computational planetary science

*Junichiro Makino1 (1.Kobe University)

Keywords:High Performance Computing, Computational Science

In FY 2016, as one of research project for post-K supercomputer,
"Exploratory Challenge 3 Elucidation of the Birth of Exoplanets and
the Environmental Variations of Planets in the Solar System" has been
started. In this talk, I'll overview this project (we call this
project computational planetary science project for short).

The development of post-K supercomputer was started in 2014, and its
planed completion year is 2020, with up to 100 times faster speed on
real applications compared to K computer. As one of four "Exploratory
Challenges", computational planetary science has been selected, and
it is assigned to Kobe University, with other eight research
institutes.

The computational planetary science project consists of four sub
topics: planetary formation, dynamics and evolution of planets, solar
activities and environmental change, and the origin of life. In this
talk, I'll overview these topics, computational challenges, and
expected scientific products.
