$ kill 1234

where 1234 is the PID (process identifier)

For pausing and resuming, you might try

kill -STOP 1234

and

kill -CONT 1234

though I never tested that
(http://tombuntu.com/index.php/2007/11/23/how-to-pause-a-linux-process/)

If you pause the simulation, though, it will not free allocated cores
and the scheduler will not run the next one in queue.
