Abstract
The development and the implementation of a Particle-in-Cell code written in the Unified Parallel C (UPC) language for plasma simulations with application to astrophysics and fusion nuclear energy machines are presented. A simple one dimensional electrostatic Particle-in-Cell code has been developed first to investigate the implementation details in the UPC language, and second to study the UPC performance on parallel computers. The initial simulations of plasmas with the UPC Particle-in-Cell code and a study of parallel speed-up of the UPC code up to 128 cores are shown.
