`Cluster Generator `_ (CG) is a cross-platform Python library for generating initial conditions of galaxy clusters for N-body / hydrodynamics codes. CG provides a variety of construction approaches, different physical assumption, profiles, and gravitational theories. Furthermore, CG is intended to interface with a number of N-body / hydrodynamics codes used in studies of galaxy clusters, reducing the headache of converting initial conditions between formats for different simulation software. GC's goal is to provide comprehensive tools for modeling and implementation of galaxy clusters in astrophysical simulations to promote the study of galaxy cluster dynamics. This repository contains the core package, which is constructed modularly to facilitate easy development by users to meet particular scientific use cases. All of the necessary tools to get started building initial conditions are provided. You can access the documentation `here `_, or build it from scratch using the ``./docs`` directory in this source distribution. Development occurs here on Github, if you encounter any bugs, issues, documentation failures, or want to suggest features, we recommend that you submit an issue on the issues page of the repository.

The following are built-in, but adding more is a relatively simple task: - :ref:`Newtonian Gravity ` .. dropdown:: MONDian Gravities - :ref:`AQUAL ` - :ref:`QUMOND ` .. grid-item:: .. dropdown:: Implemented Codes CG provides end-to-end initial condition generation tools for **all** of the following codes: - :ref:`RAMSES ` - :ref:`ATHENA++ ` - :ref:`AREPO ` - :ref:`GAMER ` - :ref:`FLASH ` - :ref:`GIZMO ` - :ref:`ENZO ` .. grid-item:: .. dropdown:: Available Datasets The :ref:`Cluster Collection ` module provides an easy interface with profiles derived from observational constraints in the literature. These utilities provide the user with a simple way of initializing realistic galaxy cluster models from literature without any pre-processing. The currently available cluster datasets are .. rubric:: Available Cluster Collections .. py:currentmodule:: cluster_collections .. autosummary:: :template: class.rst Vikhlinin06 Ascasibar07 Sanderson10 .. grid-item:: .. dropdown:: Automated Non-Physicality Correction The CG provides a purpose built algorithm for non-physical corrections in initialized clusters to reduce labor overhead in the generation of the initial conditions.
