Forming Worlds Lab

Welcome to the code hub of the Forming Worlds Lab, a cross-disciplinary and multi-national team of researchers investigating the formation and evolution of rocky exoplanets and terrestrial worlds of the Solar System. This platform hosts a number of open source planetary simulation codes, which we develop and/or contribute to. All codes are executable stand-alone.

PROTEUS
Coupled atmosphere-interior framework to simulate the temporal evolution of rocky planets. (Development Roadmap)

JANUS
Parameterised convective model of planetary atmospheres, designed for integration into PROTEUS.

MORS
Model for the rotation and flux evolution of stars, adapted for integration into PROTEUS.

SOCRATES
Atmospheric radiative transfer code, adapted for integration into PROTEUS.

AGNI
Atmospheric radiative-convective solver, designed for integration into PROTEUS.

SPIDER
Parameterised interior dynamics code for rocky planets with molten and/or solid interiors, adapted for integration into PROTEUS.

i2elvis_planet
Fluid mechanics and thermochemistry of the interior of planetesimals and protoplanets.

Erebus.jl
Hydro-thermo-mechanical-chemical geodynamic numerical code with a focus on thermodynamic reactions in a two-phase model.

All codes hosted publicly here are open for collaboration and are under active development for the purpose of scientific research. If you see new changes pushed to one of the repositories that are not yet linked to a journal publication and you want to make use of these, please do reach out to the authors first. If you have any questions or suggestions, please either create a Discussion, an Issue in the respective repository, or reach out via email to contact@formingworlds.space.
