Three-dimensional SPH simulations of the Caloris basin-forming impact: basin scaling, the gravity anomaly, and antipodal effects

Thomas Meier, Christian Reinhardt, Martin Jutzi +1

The Caloris basin is the largest well-preserved impact structure on Mercury, yet its formation conditions, the origin of its positive gravity anomaly, and its relation to the antip…

Terrestrial planet formation in the era of GPU computing

Simon L. Grimm, Joachim G. Stadel

In this chapter, we summarize the underlying numerical methods needed for efficient -body integration of planetary systems. We discuss how symplectic integrators have been devel…

Recent advances in modelling of global-scale collisions using smoothed particle hydrodynamics

Christian Reinhardt, Sabina D. Raducan, Thomas Meier +3

Impacts play a fundamental role in shaping the physical and chemical properties of the objects in our Solar System. Given the challenges in replicating such collisions through labo…

Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics in pkdgrav3 for Shock Physics Simulations. II. Shear Strength

Thomas Meier, Christian Reinhardt, Martin Jutzi +2

Material strength effects have been recently shown to be significant in giant impacts even at scales of planetary collisions. Despite this, their effects are often neglected in num…

The possibility of a giant impact on Venus

Mirco Bussmann, Christian Reinhardt, Cedric Gillmann +4

Giant impacts were common in the early evolution of the Solar System, and it is possible that Venus also experienced an impact. A giant impact on Venus could have affected its rota…
