Discontinuous Galerkin algorithms for fully kinetic plasmas

•The discretization of the Vlasov–Maxwell system is high order accurate.•The spatial discretization conserves energy exactly.•The algorithm scales well on distributed memory clusters.•The algorithm permits noise free calculations of the distribution function.•The algorithm has been tested on a five...
