Modelling astrophysical fluids with particles

Stephan Rosswog

Computational fluid dynamics is a crucial tool to theoretically explore the cosmos. In the last decade, we have seen a substantial methodological diversification with a number of c…

The Lagrangian hydrodynamics code MAGMA2

Stephan Rosswog

We present the methodology and performance of the new Lagrangian hydrodynamics code MAGMA2, a Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics code that benefits from a number of non-standard enhan…

Serendipitous Discoveries of Kilonovae in the LSST Main Survey: Maximising Detections of Sub-Threshold Gravitational Wave Events

Christian N. Setzer, Rahul Biswas, Hiranya V. Peiris +3

We investigate the ability of the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) to discover kilonovae (kNe) from binary neutron star (BNS) and neutron star-black hole (NSBH) mergers, focu…

SPH Methods in the Modelling of Compact Objects

S. Rosswog

We review the current status of compact object simulations that are based on the Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) method. The first main part of this review is dedicated to SPH…

A fast recursive coordinate bisection tree for neighbour search and gravity

Emanuel Gafton, Stephan Rosswog

We introduce our new binary tree code for neighbour search and gravitational force calculations in an N-particle system. The tree is built in a "top-down" fashion by "recursive coo…

Astrophysical Smooth Particle Hydrodynamics

Stephan Rosswog

The paper presents a detailed review of the smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH) method with particular focus on its astrophysical applications. We start by introducing the basic id…
