Bridging the gap between stars and planets

Aina Palau, Dimitris Stamatellos, Matthew Bate +58

The formation mechanisms of brown dwarfs (BDs) and free-floating planets (FFPs) are poorly constrained. The two main competing scenarios include the star-like scenario, where these…

A new hybrid radiative transfer method for massive star formation

R. Mignon-Risse, M. González, B. Commerçon +1

Frequency-dependent/hybrid approaches for stellar irradiation are of primary importance in numerical simulations of massive star formation. We seek to compare outflow and accretion…

Numerical Methods for Simulating Star Formation

Romain Teyssier, Benoit Commercon

We review the numerical techniques for ideal and non-ideal magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD) used in the context of star formation simulations. We outline the specific challenges offered…

A fast, robust, and simple implicit method for adaptive time-stepping on adaptive mesh-refinement grids

Benoit Commercon, Vincent Debout, Romain Teyssier

Implicit solvers present strong limitations when used on supercomputing facilities and in particular for adaptive mesh-refinement codes. We present a new method for implicit adapti…

Radiation hydrodynamics with Adaptive Mesh Refinement and application to prestellar core collapse. I Methods

Benoit Commercon, Romain Teyssier, Edouard Audit +2

Radiative transfer has a strong impact on the collapse and the fragmentation of prestellar dense cores. We present the radiation-hydrodynamics solver we designed for the RAMSES cod…
