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 Nature of the Ionising Background at z=2.5-5
Aaron Sokasian, Tom Abel, Lars E. Hernquist
Using radiative transfer calculations and cosmological simulations of structure formation, we study constraints that can be placed on the nature of the cosmic ultraviolet (UV) back…
Achieving Extreme Resolution in Numerical Cosmology Using Adaptive Mesh Refinement: Resolving Primordial Star Formation
Greg L. Bryan, Tom Abel, Michael L. Norman
As an entry for the 2001 Gordon Bell Award in the "special" category, we describe our 3-d, hybrid, adaptive mesh refinement (AMR) code, Enzo, designed for high-resolution, multiphy…
Three Dimensional Radiative Transfer
Tom Abel
Radiative Transfer (RT) effects play a crucial role in the thermal history of the intergalactic medium. Here I discuss recent advances in the development of numerical methods that…
The Role of H2 Molecules in Cosmological Structure Formation
Tom Abel, Zoltan Haiman
We review the relevance of H2 molecules for structure formation in cosmology. Molecules are important at high redshifts, when the first collapsed structures appear with typical tem…
The Formation and Fragmentation of Primordial Molecular Clouds
Tom Abel, Greg L. Bryan, Michael L. Norman
Many questions in physical cosmology regarding the thermal history of the intergalactic medium, chemical enrichment, reionization, etc. are thought to be intimately related to the…
