Dynamics of Laterally Propagating Flames in X-ray Bursts. I. Burning Front Structure
Kiran Eiden, Michael Zingale, Alice Harpole +3
We investigate the structure of laterally-propagating flames through the highly-stratified burning layer in an X-ray burst. Two-dimensional hydrodynamics simulations of flame propa…
Modelling low Mach number stellar hydrodynamics with MAESTROeX
A. Harpole, D. Fan, M. P. Katz +3
Modelling long-time convective flows in the interiors of stars is extremely challenging using conventional compressible hydrodynamics codes due to the acoustic timestep limitation.…
The Castro AMR Simulation Code: Current and Future Developments
M. Zingale, A. S. Almgren, M. Barrios Sazo +7
We describe recent developments to the Castro astrophysics simulation code, focusing on new features that enable our simulations of X-ray bursts. Two highlights of Castro's ongoing…
MAESTROeX: A Massively Parallel Low Mach Number Astrophysical Solver
Duoming Fan, Andrew Nonaka, Ann S. Almgren +2
We present MAESTROeX, a massively parallel solver for low Mach number astrophysical flows. The underlying low Mach number equation set allows for efficient, long-time integration f…
pyro: a framework for hydrodynamics explorations and prototyping
Alice Harpole, Michael Zingale, Ian Hawke +1
pyro is a Python-based simulation framework designed for ease of implementation and exploration of hydrodynamics methods. It is built in a object-oriented fashion, allowing for the…
Catching Element Formation In The Act
Chris L. Fryer, Frank Timmes, Aimee L. Hungerford +216
Gamma-ray astronomy explores the most energetic photons in nature to address some of the most pressing puzzles in contemporary astrophysics. It encompasses a wide range of objects…
