JAX-powered Cosmological Particle-Mesh N-body Solver

## Goals

Provide a modern infrastructure to support differentiable PM N-body simulations using JAX:
- Keep implementation simple and readable, in pure NumPy API
- Any order forward and backward automatic differentiation
- Support automated batching using `vmap`
- Compatibility with external optimizer libraries like `optax`
- Now fully distributable on **multi-GPU and multi-node** systems using [jaxDecomp](https://github.com/DifferentiableUniverseInitiative/jaxDecomp) working with`JAX v0.4.35`


## Open development and use

Current expectations are:
- This project is and will remain open source, and usable without any restrictions for any purposes
- Will be a simple publication on [The Journal of Open Source Software](https://joss.theoj.org/)
- Everyone is welcome to contribute, and can join the JOSS publication (until it is submitted to the journal).
- Anyone (including main contributors) can use this code as a framework to build and publish their own applications, with no expectation that they *need* to extend authorship to all jaxpm developers.

## Getting Started

To dive into JaxPM’s capabilities, please explore the **notebook section** for detailed tutorials and examples on various setups, from single-device simulations to multi-host configurations. You can find the notebooks' [README here](notebooks/README.md) for a structured guide through each tutorial.
