Accelerated Event-by-Event Neutrino Oscillation Reweighting with Matter Effects on a GPU

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

Oscillation probability calculations are becoming increasingly CPU intensive in modern neutrino oscillation analyses. The independency of reweighting individual events in a Monte Carlo sample lends itself to parallel implementation on a Graphics Processing Unit. The library "Prob3++" was ported to the GPU using the CUDA C API, allowing for large scale parallelized calculations of neutrino oscillation probabilities through matter of constant density, decreasing the execution time by a factor of 75, when compared to performance on a single CPU.
