On the Road to Understanding Type Ia Progenitors: Precision Simulations of Double Degenerate Mergers
Chris L. Fryer, Steven Diehl
We review the current state of the art in double degenerate merger simulations to better understand the role this phenomenon plays in type Ia progenitors. Because the fate of a mer…
X-ray Observables of Magnetically Dominated Cavities in Clusters
Steven Diehl, Masanori Nakamura, Hui Li +1
We present results from magneto-hydrodynamic jet simulations in the magnetically dominated regime and find that they inflate cavities into the intracluster medium. Mock Chandra X-r…
The Formation of Hydrogen Deficient Stars through Common Envelope Evolution
Steven Diehl, Chris Fryer, Falk Herwig
We present preliminary results from Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations of common envelope evolution. We qualitatively compare the interaction between a 0.9M red giant…
The Hot Interstellar Medium in Normal Elliptical Galaxies. II. Morphological Evidence for AGN Feedback
Steven Diehl, Thomas S. Statler
We report on the discovery of a new quantitative relationship between X-ray gas morphology and radio and X-ray AGN luminosities in normal elliptical galaxies. This is the second pa…
Numerical Modeling of AGN Jets: Formation of Magnetically Dominated Lobes and Stability Properties of Current-carrying Jets
Masanori Nakamura, Hui Li, Steven Diehl +1
We argue the behavior of Poynting flux-dominated outflows from AGN in the galactic cluster systems by performing three-dimensional MHD simulations within the framework of the "magn…
