SHH method for SIDM: An SIDM-hydro hybrid method for simulating self-interacting dark matter
Sarah Schon, Michael Ryan, John Blakely +3
We present a new scheme to couple existing numerical methods for elastic self-interacting dark matter (SIDM) to the hydrodynamic equations via a continuous function of the local Kn…
