Shock finding on a moving-mesh: II. Hydrodynamic shocks in the Illustris universe
Kevin Schaal, Volker Springel, Rüdiger Pakmor +7
Hydrodynamical shocks are a manifestation of the non-linearity of the Euler equations and play a fundamental role in cosmological gas dynamics. In this work, we identify and analys…
Simulating cosmic ray physics on a moving mesh
C. Pfrommer, R. Pakmor, K. Schaal +2
We discuss new methods to integrate the cosmic ray (CR) evolution equations coupled to magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD) on an unstructured moving mesh, as realised in the massively para…
Simulating Turbulence Using the Astrophysical Discontinuous Galerkin Code TENET
Andreas Bauer, Kevin Schaal, Volker Springel +3
In astrophysics, the two main methods traditionally in use for solving the Euler equations of ideal fluid dynamics are smoothed particle hydrodynamics and finite volume discretizat…
Astrophysical hydrodynamics with a high-order discontinuous Galerkin scheme and adaptive mesh refinement
Kevin Schaal, Andreas Bauer, Praveen Chandrashekar +3
Solving the Euler equations of ideal hydrodynamics as accurately and efficiently as possible is a key requirement in many astrophysical simulations. It is therefore important to co…
Improving the convergence properties of the moving-mesh code AREPO
Ruediger Pakmor, Volker Springel, Andreas Bauer +5
Accurate numerical solutions of the equations of hydrodynamics play an ever more important role in many fields of astrophysics. In this work, we reinvestigate the accuracy of the m…
Shock finding on a moving-mesh: I. Shock statistics in non-radiative cosmological simulations
Kevin Schaal, Volker Springel
Cosmological shock waves play an important role in hierarchical structure formation by dissipating and thermalizing kinetic energy of gas flows, thereby heating the universe. Furth…
