Multidimensional tests of a finite-volume solver for MHD with a real-gas equation of state
J. R. King, R. Masti, B. Srinivasan +1
This work considers two algorithms of a finite-volume solver for the MHD equations with a real-gas equation of state (EOS). Both algorithms use a multistate form of Harten-Lax-Van…

Boundary Conditions for Continuum Simulations of Wall-bounded Kinetic Plasmas
Petr Cagas, Ammar Hakim, Bhuvana Srinivasan
Continuum kinetic simulations of plasmas, where the distribution function of the species is directly discretized in phase-space, permits fully kinetic simulations without the stati…

Nonlinear saturation of the Weibel instability
Petr Cagas, Ammar Hakim, Wayne Scales +1
The growth and saturation of magnetic fields due to the Weibel instability (WI) have important implications for laboratory and astrophysical plasmas, and this has drawn significant…
