Influence of adaptive mesh refinement and the hydro solver on shear-induced mass stripping in a minor-merger scenario

W. Schmidt, J. Schulz, L. Iapichino +2

We compare two different codes for simulations of cosmological structure formation to investigate the sensitivity of hydrodynamical instabilities to numerics, in particular, the hy…

Comparisons of Two- and Three-Dimensional Convection in Type I X-ray Bursts

M. Zingale, C. M. Malone, A. Nonaka +2

We perform the first detailed three-dimensional simulation of low Mach number convection preceding thermonuclear ignition in a mixed H/He X-ray burst. Our simulations include a mod…

A Low Mach Number Model for Moist Atmospheric Flows

Max Duarte, Ann Almgren, John Bell

We introduce a low Mach number model for moist atmospheric flows that accurately incorporates reversible moist processes in flows whose features of interest occur on advective rath…

Pair-Instability Supernovae of Non-Zero Metallicity Stars

Ke-Jung Chen, Alexander Heger, Stan Woosley +2

Observational evidence suggests that some very massive stars in the local Universe may die as pair-instability supernovae. We present 2D simulations of the pair-instability superno…

Large-eddy simulations of isolated disc galaxies with thermal and turbulent feedback

Harald Braun, Wolfram Schmidt, Jens C. Niemeyer +1

We present a subgrid-scale model for the Multi-phase Interstellar medium, Star formation, and Turbulence (MIST) and explore its behaviour in high-resolution large-eddy simulations…

Multidimensional Modeling of Type I X-ray Bursts. II. Two-Dimensional Convection in a Mixed H/He Accretor

C. M. Malone, M. Zingale, A. Nonaka +2

Type I X-ray Bursts (XRBs) are thermonuclear explosions of accreted material on the surfaces of a neutron stars in low mass X-ray binaries. Prior to the ignition of a subsonic burn…
