Getting started

Phantom is a fast, parallel, modular and low-memory smoothed particle hydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics code in three dimensions written in Fortran. It was developed for astrophysical applications (read the paper).

Quickstart

1. Get a copy of the code.
2. Make your first calculation.
3. Understand how the code works (Fortree may help).
4. Run your simulations on a cluster and make cool science.
5. Please cite the code paper and other relevant papers in your publications.
