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…
Algorithmic comparisons of decaying, isothermal, supersonic turbulence
S. Kitsionas, C. Federrath, R. Klessen +10
Contradicting results have been reported in the literature with respect to the performance of the numerical techniques employed for the study of supersonic turbulence. We aim at ch…
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…
