The Pencil Code, a modular MPI code for partial differential equations and particles: multipurpose and multiuser-maintained

A. Brandenburg, A. Johansen, P. A. Bourdin +34

The Pencil Code is a highly modular physics-oriented simulation code that can be adapted to a wide range of applications. It is primarily designed to solve partial differential equ…

Can the thermal instability drive turbulence?

Axel Brandenburg, Maarit J. Korpi, Antony J. Mee

The thermal instability with a piecewise power law cooling function is investigated using one- and three-dimensional simulations with periodic and shearing-periodic boundary condit…

Turbulent diffusion in protoplanetary discs: the effect of an imposed magnetic field

Anders Johansen, Hubert Klahr, Antony J. Mee

We study the effect of an imposed vertical magnetic field on the turbulent mass diffusion properties of magnetorotational turbulence in protoplanetary discs. It is well-known that…

Turbulence from localized random expansion waves

Antony J. Mee, Axel Brandenburg

In an attempt to determine the outer scale of turbulence driven by localized sources, such as supernova explosions in the interstellar medium, we consider a forcing function given…

Simulating field-aligned diffusion of a cosmic ray gas

A. P. Snodin, Axel Brandenburg, A. J. Mee +1

The macroscopic behaviour of cosmic rays in turbulent magnetic fields is discussed. An implementation of anisotropic diffusion of cosmic rays with respect to the magnetic field in…

Nonhelical turbulent dynamos: shocks and shear

A. Brandenburg, N. E. L. Haugen, A. J. Mee

Small scale turbulent dynamo action in compressible transonic turbulence is discussed. It is shown that the critical value of the magnetic Reynolds number displays a bimodal behavi…
