REMIX SPH -- improving mixing in smoothed particle hydrodynamics simulations using a generalised, material-independent approach
Thomas D. Sandnes, Vincent R. Eke, Jacob A. Kegerreis +4
We present REMIX, a smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) scheme designed to alleviate effects that typically suppress mixing and instability growth at density discontinuities in S…
SWIFT: A modern highly-parallel gravity and smoothed particle hydrodynamics solver for astrophysical and cosmological applications
Matthieu Schaller, Josh Borrow, Peter W. Draper +24
Numerical simulations have become one of the key tools used by theorists in all the fields of astrophysics and cosmology. The development of modern tools that target the largest ex…
Immediate origin of the Moon as a post-impact satellite
Jacob A. Kegerreis, Sergio Ruiz-Bonilla, Vincent R. Eke +3
The Moon is traditionally thought to have coalesced from the debris ejected by a giant impact onto the early Earth. However, such models struggle to explain the similar isotopic co…
Dealing with density discontinuities in planetary SPH simulations
Sergio Ruiz-Bonilla, Josh Borrow, Vincent R. Eke +4
Density discontinuities cannot be precisely modelled in standard formulations of smoothed particles hydrodynamics (SPH) because the density field is defined smoothly as a kernel-we…
The effect of pre-impact spin on the Moon-forming collision
Sergio Ruiz-Bonilla, Vincent R. Eke, Jacob A. Kegerreis +2
We simulate the hypothesised collision between the proto-Earth and a Mars-sized impactor that created the Moon. Amongst the resulting debris disk in some impacts, we find a self-gr…
