Is the Scaling of Supersonic Turbulence Universal?

Wolfram Schmidt, Christoph Federrath, Ralf Klessen

The statistical properties of turbulence are considered to be universal at sufficiently small length scales, i. e., independent of boundary conditions and large-scale forces acting…

Numerical simulations of compressively driven interstellar turbulence: I. Isothermal gas

Wolfram Schmidt, Christoph Federrath, Markus Hupp +2

We performed numerical simulations of supersonic isothermal turbulence driven by mostly compressive large-scale forcing, using both a static grid and adaptive mesh refinement with…

The Density Probability Distribution in Compressible Isothermal Turbulence: Solenoidal versus Compressive Forcing

Christoph Federrath, Ralf S. Klessen, Wolfram Schmidt

The probability density function (PDF) of the gas density in turbulent supersonic flows is investigated with high-resolution numerical simulations. In a systematic study, we compar…

Turbulent Mixing in the Interstellar Medium -- an application for Lagrangian Tracer Particles

C Federrath, S C O Glover, R S Klessen +1

We use 3-dimensional numerical simulations of self-gravitating compressible turbulent gas in combination with Lagrangian tracer particles to investigate the mixing process of molec…

The Fractal Density Structure in Supersonic Isothermal Turbulence: Solenoidal versus Compressive Energy Injection

Christoph Federrath, Ralf S. Klessen, Wolfram Schmidt

In a systematic study, we compare the density statistics in high resolution numerical experiments of supersonic isothermal turbulence, driven by the usually adopted solenoidal (div…
