A Two-moment Radiation Hydrodynamics Module in Athena Using a Time-explicit Godunov Method
M. Aaron Skinner, Eve C. Ostriker
We describe a module for the Athena code that solves the gray equations of radiation hydrodynamics (RHD), based on the first two moments of the radiative transfer equation. We use…
