Developing a Non-Newtonian Fluid Model for Dust, for Application to Astrophysical Flows
Elliot M. Lynch, Guillaume Laibe
In the astrophysics community it is common practice to model collisionless dust, entrained in a gas flow, as a pressureless fluid. However a pressureless fluid is fundamentally dif…
Discs are born eccentric
Benoit Commerçon, Francesco Lovascio, Elliot Lynch +1
Recent observations have begun probing the early phases of disc formation, but little data yet exists on disc structure and morphology of Class 0 objects. Using simulations, we are…
Local Spherical Collapsing Box in Athena++: Numerical Implementation and Benchmark Tests
Ziyan Xu, Elliot M. Lynch, Guillaume Laibe
We implement a local model for a spherical collapsing/expanding gas cloud into the Athena++ magnetohydrodynamic code. This local model consists of a Cartesian periodic box with tim…
Probing the eccentricity in protostellar discs -- Modeling kinematics and morphologies
Enrico Ragusa, Elliot Lynch, Guillaume Laibe +2
Protostellar discs are mostly modelled as circular structures of gas and dust orbiting a protostar. However, a number of physical mechanisms, e.g. the presence of a (sub)stellar co…
