Accelerating Astrophysical Simulations with GPUs: A Case Study of Radiative Transfer in arepo-rt

Radiative transfer (RT) is a crucial ingredient for self-consistent modelling of numerous astrophysical phenomena across cosmic history. However, on-the-fly integration into radiation-hydrodynamics (RHD) simulations is computationally demanding, particularly due to the stringent time-stepping condit...
