pynucastro 3: A community library for nuclear astrophysics
Zhi Chen, Khanak Bhargava, Eric T. Johnson +8
We describe the latest release of pynucastro: a community python library for nuclear astrophysics. The goal of the pynucastro project is to build the tools needed to interactively…
AMReX-Astrophysics Microphysics: A set of microphysics routines for astrophysical simulation codes based on the AMReX library
Astro Microphysics Team, Khanak Bhargava, Abigail Bishop +15
The AMReX-Astrophysics Microphysics library provides a common set of microphysics routines (reaction networks and associated physics, equations of state, and various transport coef…
The Challenges of Modeling Astrophysical Reacting Flows
Michael Zingale, Khanak Bhargava, Ryan Brady +5
Stellar evolution is driven by the changing composition of a star from nuclear reactions. At the late stages of evolution and during explosive events, the timescale can be short an…
A Fully Explicit Integrator for Modeling Astrophysical Reactive Flows
Parker Johnson, Michael Zingale, Eric T. Johnson +2
Simulating complex astrophysical reacting flows is computationally expensive -- reactions are stiff and typically require implicit integration methods. The reaction update is often…
A Framework for Exploring Nuclear Physics Sensitivity in Numerical Simulations
Zhi Chen, Eric T. Johnson, Max Katz +3
We describe the AMReX-Astrophysics framework for exploring the sensitivity of astrophysical simulations to the details of a nuclear reaction network, including the number of nuclei…
CASTRO: A New Compressible Astrophysical Solver. I. Hydrodynamics and Self-Gravity
A. S. Almgren, V. E. Beckner, J. B. Bell +7
We present a new code, CASTRO, that solves the multicomponent compressible hydrodynamic equations for astrophysical flows including self-gravity, nuclear reactions and radiation. C…
