Abacus development has been supported by NSF AST-1313285 and more
recently by DOE-SC0013718, as well as by Simons Foundation funds
and Harvard University startup funds. NM was supported as a NSF
Graduate Research Fellow. The AbacusCosmos simulations were run
on the El Gato supercomputer at the University of Arizona, supported
by grant 1228509 from the NSF; the AbacusSummit simulations have
been supported by OLCF projects AST135 and AST145, the latter through
the Department of Energy ALCC program.
This research used resources of the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility,
which is a DOE Office of Science User Facility supported under Contract DE-AC05-00OR22725,
and resources of the National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC),
a U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science User Facility located at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory,
operated under Contract No. DE-AC02-05CH11231.
We would like to thank the OLCF and NERSC support teams for their expert
assistance throughout this project.
