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…
pynucastro 2.1: an update on the development of a python library for nuclear astrophysics
Alexander Smith Clark, Eric T. Johnson, Zhi Chen +5
pynucastro is a python library that provides visualization and analyze techniques to classify, construct, and evaluate nuclear reaction rates and networks. It provides tools that a…
Sensitivity of 3D Convective Urca Simulations to Changes in Urca Reactions
Brendan Boyd, Alexander Smith Clark, Alan C. Calder +2
A proposed setting for thermonuclear (Type Ia) supernovae is a white dwarf that has gained mass from a companion to the point of carbon ignition in the core. There is a simmering p…
MESA-Web: A cloud resource for stellar evolution in astronomy curricula
Carl E. Fields, Richard H. D. Townsend, A. L. Dotter +2
We present MESA-Web, a cloud resource with an online interface to the Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA) software instrument. MESA-Web allows learners to evolve…
