Sarracen documentation

Sarracen is a Python library for analysis and visualization of smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) data.

It is built upon the pandas and Matplotlib data and visualization libraries. SPH data can be loaded into a pandas DataFrame structure that has been extended to support SPH. Visualizations of the data use the SPH kernel, and a variety of rendering options are available. All SPH interpolation functions are optimized using Numba into machine code with both multi-threaded and CUDA enabled routines. Our primary intended application is for astrophysical SPH simulations.
