Numerical viscosity and resistivity in MHD turbulence simulations
Lakshmi Malvadi Shivakumar, Christoph Federrath
Accurate magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) turbulence simulations require understanding numerical dissipation. We quantify numerical viscosity and resistivity in subsonic (M=0.1) and sup…
A new density variance - Mach number relation for subsonic and supersonic, isothermal turbulence
Lukas Konstandin, Philipp Girichidis, Christoph Federrath +1
The probability density function (PDF) of the gas density in subsonic and supersonic, isothermal, driven turbulence is analyzed with a systematic set of hydrodynamical grid simulat…
Comparing the statistics of interstellar turbulence in simulations and observations: Solenoidal versus compressive turbulence forcing
C. Federrath, J. Roman-Duval, R. Klessen +2
We study two limiting cases of turbulence forcing in numerical experiments: solenoidal (divergence-free) forcing, and compressive (curl-free) forcing, and compare our results to ob…
