Convergence of SPH simulations of self-gravitating accretion discs: Sensitivity to the implementation of radiative cooling
W. K. M. Rice, D. H. Forgan, P. J. Armitage
Recent simulations of self-gravitating accretion discs, carried out using a three-dimensional Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) code by Meru and Bate, have been interpreted as…
Stability of self-gravitating discs under irradiation
W. K. M. Rice, P. J. Armitage, G. R. Mamatsashvili +2
Self-gravity becomes competitive as an angular momentum transport process in accretion discs at large radii, where the temperature is low enough that external irradiation likely co…
Excitation of spiral density waves by convection in accretion discs
G. R. Mamatsashvili, W. K. M. Rice
Motivated by the recent results of \citet{Lesur_Ogilvie10} on the transport properties of incompressible convection in protoplanetary discs, in this paper we study the role of comp…
