Implementing a microphysics model in hydrodynamic simulations to study the initial plasma formation in dielectric ablator materials for direct-drive implosions

Arnab Kar, S. X. Hu, G. Duchateau +2

A microphysics model to describe the photoionization and impact ionization processes in dielectric ablator materials like plastic has been implemented into the one-dimensional hydr…

Common Envelope Evolution on the Asymptotic Giant Branch: Unbinding within a Decade?

Luke Chamandy, Eric G. Blackman, Adam Frank +2

Common envelope (CE) evolution is a critical but still poorly understood progenitor phase of many high-energy astrophysical phenomena. Although 3D global hydrodynamic CE simulation…

Bipolar Planetary Nebulae from Outflow Collimation by Common Envelope Evolution

Yangyuxin Zou, Adam Frank, Zhuo Chen +8

The morphology of bipolar planetary nebulae (PNe) can be attributed to interactions between a fast wind from the central engine and dense toroidal shaped ejecta left over from comm…

A 3D radiation-hydrodynamic AGB binary model

Zhuo Chen, Natalia Ivanova, Jonathan Carroll-Nellenback

The origin of chemically peculiar stars and non-zero eccentricity in evolved close binaries have been long-standing problems in binary stellar evolution. Answers to these questions…

How Drag Force Evolves in Global Common Envelope Simulations

Luke Chamandy, Eric G. Blackman, Adam Frank +3

We compute the forces, torque and rate of work on the companion-core binary due to drag in global simulations of common envelope (CE) evolution for three different companion masses…

Hydrodynamic Simulations of Disrupted Planetary Accretion Discs Inside the Core of an AGB Star

Gabriel Guidarelli, Jason Nordhaus, Luke Chamandy +5

Volume complete sky surveys provide evidence for a binary origin for the formation of isolated white dwarfs with magnetic fields in excess of a MegaGauss. Interestingly, not a sing…
