Thanks for posting, @NickHaught02!

I have encountered issues where the simulation becomes unstable or crashes, [...] I can solve this by using more GPUs and of course, lowering the resolution.

You mean the simulation crashes because it runs out of memory, because you create more particles dynamically?

I have tried additional settings like load balancing which have helped a little, but its just how quickly the fusion events happen that crashes the sims.

That is definitely the right way to go. Additionally, the fusion algorithms right now assume that the events are quite rare compared to the overall plasma dynamics. To counter the rapid increase of numerical particles, you can try resam…
