Astrophysical fluid simulations of thermally ideal gases with non-constant adiabatic index: numerical implementation

B. Vaidya, A. Mignone, G. Bodo +1

An Equation of State (\textit{EoS}) closes the set of fluid equations. Although an ideal EoS with a constant \textit{adiabatic index} $\Gamma$ is the preferred choice due to its simplis…
