Comments:
The ramses code is intended to be a versatile platform to develop applications using Adaptive Mesh Refinement (AMR) for computational astrophysics. The current implementation allows solving the classical and relativistic Euler equations in presence of self-gravity, magnetic field and radiation field. The ramses code can be used on massively parallel architectures, if properly linked to the MPI library. It can also be used on single processor machines without MPI. Output data are generated using Fortran unformatted files. A suite of post-processing routines is delivered within the present release, allowing the user to perform a simple analysis of the generated output files.
