Experiments conducted in the burning plasma regime with inertial fusion implosions
J. S. Ross, J. E. Ralph, A. B. Zylstra +149
An experimental program is currently underway at the National Ignition Facility (NIF) to compress deuterium and tritium (DT) fuel to densities and temperatures sufficient to achiev…
Cognitive simulation models for inertial confinement fusion: Combining simulation and experimental data
K. D. Humbird, J. L. Peterson, J. Salmonson +1
The design space for inertial confinement fusion (ICF) experiments is vast and experiments are extremely expensive. Researchers rely heavily on computer simulations to explore the…
MHD Simulations of Core Collapse Supernovae with Cosmos++
Shizuka Akiyama, Jay D. Salmonson
We performed 2D, axisymmetric, MHD simulations with Cosmos++ in order to examine the growth of the magnetorotational instability (MRI) in core--collapse supernovae. We have initial…
Global General Relativistic MHD Simulation of a Tilted Black-Hole Accretion Disk
P. Chris Fragile, Omer M. Blaes, Peter Anninos +1
This paper presents a continuation of our efforts to numerically study accretion disks that are misaligned (tilted) with respect to the rotation axis of a Kerr black hole. Here we…
3D Relativistic MHD Simulation of a Tilted Accretion Disk Around a Rapidly Rotating Black Hole
P. Chris Fragile, Peter Anninos, Omer M. Blaes +1
We posit that accreting compact objects, including stellar mass black holes and neutron stars as well as supermassive black holes, may undergo extended periods of accretion during…
Numerical Modeling of the Radio Nebula from the 2004 December 27 Giant Flare of SGR 1806-20
Jay D. Salmonson, P. Chris Fragile, Peter Anninos
We use the relativistic hydrodynamics code Cosmos++ to model the evolution of the radio nebula triggered by the Dec. 27, 2004 giant flare event of soft gamma repeater 1806-20. We p…
