The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. IX - Part 2: Effects of a Major Galaxy Merger on the Stellar Morphology of a Milky Way-mass Galaxy Progenitor
Thinh Huu Nguyen, Kirk S. S. Barrow, Minyong Jung +23
Galaxy mergers, with their high sensitivity to initial conditions, provide a valuable setting for comparative studies of galaxy simulation codes. Following our first paper focusing…
The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. IX - Part 1: Effects of a Major Galaxy Merger on Star Formation of a Milky Way-mass Galaxy Progenitor
Thinh Huu Nguyen, Kirk S. S. Barrow, Minyong Jung +23
Given their highly nonlinear dynamics and sensitivity to initial conditions, galaxy mergers are a compelling area to conduct a simulation code comparison. We perform a comparative…
RAMSES-GPU: Cell-by-Cell Adaptive Mesh Refinement with Magneto-Hydrodynamics and Self-Gravity on Graphics Processing Units
Romain Teyssier, Eric Moseley, Robert V. Caddy +9
We present the implementation and optimization of the cosmological simulation code RAMSES on Graphics Processing Units (GPUs) using CUDA Fortran. This accelerated version ports the…
The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. XI: Solving the Non-Spherical Morphology and Evolution of Dark Matter Halos with Haskap Pie
Kirk S. S. Barrow, Thinh Huu Nguyen, Santi Roca-FÃ brega +26
We introduce a halo solving and tracking procedure that intrinsically treats dark matter halos as non-spherical objects by leveraging the bound particle searching techniques used i…
Itô tracers: continuous-trajectory Lagrangian particles for Eulerian hydrodynamics
Eric R. Moseley, R. Teyssier, Tom Abel
Lagrangian tracer particles have long been used to track the history of individual gas parcels in hydrodynamical codes. Particles advected by the cell-centered velocity carry no re…
The AGORA High-resolution Galaxy Simulations Comparison Project. X: Formation and Evolution of Galaxies at the High-redshift Frontier
Hyeonyong Kim, Ji-hoon Kim, Minyong Jung +22
Recent observations from JWST have revealed unexpectedly luminous galaxies, exhibiting stellar masses and luminosities significantly higher than predicted by theoretical models at…
