abstract = {We perform a scaling and performance portability study of
the electrostatic particle-in-cell scheme for plasma physics
applications through a set of mini-apps we name
“Alpine”, which can make use of exascale computing
capabilities. The mini-apps are based on IPPL, a framework
that is designed around performance portable and
dimensionality independent particles and fields. We
benchmark the simulations with varying parameters, such as
grid resolutions ($512^3$ to $2048^3$) and number of
simulation particles ($10^9$ to $10^{11}$), with the
following mini-apps: weak and strong Landau damping,
bump-on-tail and two-stream instabilities, and the dynamics
of an electron bunch in a charge-neutral Penning trap. We
show strong and weak scaling and analyze the performance of
different components on several pre-exascale architectures,
such as Piz-Daint, Cori, Summit, and Perlmutter. While the
scaling and portability study helps to identify the
performance critical components of the particle-in-cell
scheme on the current state-of-the-art computing
architectures, the mini-apps by themselves can be used to
develop new algorithms and optimize their high performance
implementations targeting exascale architectures.},
