Success in action

DiRAC elevates theoretical physics and astrophysics with HPC

The types of calculations that DiRAC and the University of Leicester process span theoretical astrophysics, particle physics, cosmology, and nuclear physics to understand how the universe works. It requires supercomputing.

Challenge

Find a supercomputing solution that would support the types of complex calculations that were required.

Solution

HPE worked closely with DiRAC and the university to design the exact system that was needed, and when implemented, it delivered groundbreaking science from day one.

We can “do calculations which are 20 times faster than…this time last year. So it's really revolutionizing what we can do.”

Mark Wilkinson, professor, University of Leicester

Result

The university is capable of doing calculations 20 times faster, revolutionizing what it can do on particle physics calculations.
