Causal, stable first-order viscous relativistic hydrodynamics with ideal gas microphysics

Alex Pandya, Elias R. Most, Frans Pretorius

We present the first numerical analysis of causal, stable first-order relativistic hydrodynamics with ideal gas microphysics, based in the formalism developed by Bemfica, Disconzi,…

Dynamics of a nonminimally coupled scalar field in asymptotically spacetime

Alex Pandya, Justin L. Ripley

We numerically investigate the stability of four-dimensional asymptotically anti-de Sitter () spacetime for a class of nonminimally coupled scalar field theories. In particu…

Conservative finite volume scheme for first-order viscous relativistic hydrodynamics

Alex Pandya, Elias R. Most, Frans Pretorius

We present the first conservative finite volume numerical scheme for the causal, stable relativistic Navier-Stokes equations developed by Bemfica, Disconzi, Noronha, and Kovtun (BD…

Updated Transfer Coefficients for Magnetized Plasmas

Andrew Marszewski, Ben S. Prather, Abhishek V. Joshi +2

Accurate radiative transfer coefficients (emissivities, absorptivities, and rotativities) are needed for modeling radiation from relativistically hot, magnetized plasmas such as th…

A numerical exploration of first-order relativistic hydrodynamics

Alex Pandya, Frans Pretorius

We present the first numerical solutions of the causal, stable relativistic Navier-Stokes equations as formulated by Bemfica, Disconzi, Noronha, and Kovtun (BDNK). For this initial…

The rotating black hole interior: Insights from gravitational collapse in spacetime

Alex Pandya, Frans Pretorius

We present results from a numerical study of rotating black hole formation in 3-dimensional asymptotically anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetime, focusing on the structure of the black ho…
