A Study of the Vertical Motion of Supernova Remnant Bubbles in the Interstellar Medium Drawn from the Results of Three-Dimensional MHD Simulations
E. A. Raley, R. L. Shelton, T. Plewa
In order to determine the circumstances under which isolated SNRs are capable of rising into and enriching the thick disk and galactic halo, simulations of supernova remnants are p…
Global Anisotropies in Supernova Explosions and Pulsar Recoil
L. Scheck, T. Plewa, K. Kifonidis +2
We show by two-dimensional and first three-dimensional simulations of neutrino-driven supernova explosions that low (l=1,2) modes can dominate the flow pattern in the convective po…
Type Ia Supernovae: An Asymmetric Deflagration Model
A. C. Calder, T. Plewa, N. Vladimirova +2
We present the first high-resolution three-dimensional simulations of the deflagration phase of Type Ia supernovae that treat the entire massive white dwarf. We report the results…
Simulation of Vortex--Dominated Flows Using the FLASH Code
Vikram Dwarkadas, Tomek Plewa, Greg Weirs +2
We compare the results of two--dimensional simulations to experimental data obtained at Los Alamos National Laboratory in order to validate the FLASH code. FLASH is a multi--physic…
Sgr A* and Sgr A East: Intimate Life in the Galactic Center
Tomek Plewa, Michal Rozyczka
A hydrodynamic interaction between an old supernova remnant and a massive black hole is studied with the help of a high-resolution adaptive mesh refinement code. A series of multid…
Numerical hydrodynamics: SPH vs. AMR
Tomek Plewa
The advantages and disadvantages of two approaches to astrophysical hydrodynamics, Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics and Adaptive Mesh Refinement, are briefly discussed together with…
