Brown Dwarfs from Turbulent Fragmentation
Paolo Padoan, Alexei Kritsuk, Michael Norman +1
The origin of brown dwarfs (BDs) is an important component of the theory of star formation, because BDs are approximately as numerous as solar mass stars. It has been suggested tha…
Cosmological Simulations of X-ray Clusters: The Quest for Higher Resolution and Essential Physics
Michael L. Norman
I review cosmological simulations of X-ray clusters. Simulations have increased in resolution dramatically and the effects of radiative cooling, star formation feedback, and chemic…
Introducing Enzo, an AMR Cosmology Application
Brian W. O'Shea, Greg Bryan, James Bordner +4
In this paper we introduce Enzo, a 3D MPI-parallel Eulerian block-structured adaptive mesh refinement cosmology code. Enzo is designed to simulate cosmological structure formation,…
The Impact of AMR in Numerical Astrophysics and Cosmology
Michael L. Norman
I survey the use and impact of adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) simulations in numerical astrophysics and cosmology. Two basic techniques are in use to extend the dynamic range of Eu…
On the Formation of Cool, Non-Flowing Cores in Galaxy Clusters via Hierarchical Mergers
J. O. Burns, P. M. Motl, M. L. Norman +1
We present a new model for the creation of cool cores in rich galaxy clusters within a LambdaCDM cosmological framework using the results from high spatial dynamic range, adaptive…
The Impact of Star Formation on Cool Core Galaxy Clusters
P. M. Motl, J. O. Burns, M. L. Norman +1
We present results from recent simulations of the formation and evolution of clusters of galaxies in a LambdaCDM cosmology. These simulations contain our most physically complete i…
