Hydrodynamic simulations with the Godunov SPH
Giuseppe Murante, Stefano Borgani, Riccardo Brunino +1
We present results based on an implementation of the Godunov Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (GSPH), originally developed by Inutsuka (2002), in the GADGET-3 hydrodynamic code. We…
Massive and Refined. II. The statistical properties of turbulent motions in massive galaxy clusters with high spatial resolution
F. Vazza, G. Brunetti, C. Gheller +2
We study the properties of chaotic motions in the intra cluster medium using a set of 20 galaxy clusters simulated with large dynamical range, using the Adaptive Mesh Refinement co…
A decline and fall in the future of Italian Astronomy?
Angelo Antonelli, Vincenzo Antonuccio-Delogu, Andrea Baruffolo +89
On May 27th 2010, the Italian astronomical community learned with concern that the National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF) was going to be suppressed, and that its employees wer…
Massive and refined: a sample of large galaxy clusters simulated at high resolution. I:Thermal gas and shock waves properties
Franco Vazza, Gianfranco Brunetti, Claudio Gheller +1
We present a sample of 20 massive galaxy clusters with total virial masses in the range of 6 10^14 M_sol<M(vir)< 2 10^15M_sol, re-simulated with a customized version of the 1.5. EN…
A test suite for quantitative comparison of hydrodynamics codes in astrophysics
Elizabeth J. Tasker, Riccardo Brunino, Nigel L. Mitchell +5
We test four commonly used astrophysical simulation codes; Enzo, Flash, Gadget and Hydra, using a suite of numerical problems with analytic initial and final states. Situations sim…
The Aspen--Amsterdam Void Finder Comparison Project
Joerg M. Colberg, Frazer Pearce, Caroline Foster +16
Despite a history that dates back at least a quarter of a century studies of voids in the large--scale structure of the Universe are bedevilled by a major problem: there exist a la…
