Morphology of Rising Hydrodynamic and Magneto-hydrodynamic Bubbles from Numerical Simulations
K. Robinson, L. J. Dursi, P. M. Ricker +11
Recent Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of galaxy cluster cooling flows have revealed X-ray emission voids of up to 30 kpc in size that have been identified with buoyant, magnet…
On Heavy Element Enrichment in Classical Novae
A. Alexakis, A. C. Calder, A. Heger +10
Many classical nova ejecta are enriched in CNO and Ne. Rosner et al. recently suggested that the enrichment might originate in the resonant interaction between large-scale shear fl…
The Response of Model and Astrophysical Thermonuclear Flames to Curvature and Stretch
L. J. Dursi, M. Zingale, A. C. Calder +11
Critically understanding the `standard candle'-like behavior of Type Ia supernovae requires understanding their explosion mechanism. One family of models for Type Ia Supernovae beg…
Investigations of Pointwise Ignition of Helium Deflagrations on Neutron Stars
M. Zingale, S. E. Woosley, A. Cumming +7
We look at the spreading of localized temperature perturbations in the accreted fuel layer of a non-rotating neutron star. The pressure at the base of the accreted fuel layer is la…
Mapping Initial Hydrostatic Models in Godunov Codes
M. Zingale, L. J. Dursi, J. ZuHone +12
We look in detail at the process of mapping an astrophysical initial model from a stellar evolution code onto the computational grid of an explicit, Godunov type code while maintai…
Onset of Convectionon a Pre-Runaway White Dwarf
L. J. Dursi, A. C. Calder, A. Alexakis +7
Observed novae abundances and explosion energies estimated from observations indicate that there must be significant mixing of the heavier material of the white dwarf (C+O) into th…
