DASHMM Accelerated Adaptive Fast Multipole Poisson-Boltzmann Solver on Distributed Memory Architecture

B. Zhang, J. DeBuhr, D. Niedzielski +3

We present an updated version of the AFMPB package for fast calculation of molecular solvation-free energy. The main feature of the new version is the successful adoption of the DA…

Relativistic Hydrodynamics with Wavelets

Jackson DeBuhr, Bo Zhang, Matthew Anderson +2

Methods to solve the relativistic hydrodynamic equations are a key computational kernel in a large number of astrophysics simulations and are crucial to understanding the electroma…

Stellar Disks in Aquarius Dark Matter Haloes

Jackson DeBuhr, Chung-Pei Ma, Simon D. M. White

We investigate the gravitational interactions between live stellar disks and their dark matter halos, using LCDM haloes similar in mass to that of the Milky Way taken from the Aqua…

Galaxy-Scale Outflows Driven by Active Galactic Nuclei

Jackson DeBuhr, Eliot Quataert, Chung-Pei Ma

We present hydrodynamical simulations of major mergers of galaxies and study the effects of winds produced by active galactic nuclei (AGN) on interstellar gas in the AGN's host gal…

The Growth of Massive Black Holes in Galaxy Merger Simulations with Feedback by Radiation Pressure

Jackson DeBuhr, Eliot Quataert, Chung-Pei Ma

We study the growth of massive black holes (BH) in galaxies using smoothed particle hydrodynamic simulations of major galaxy mergers with new implementations of BH accretion and fe…

Self-Regulated Black Hole Growth via Momentum Deposition in Galaxy Merger Simulations

Jackson DeBuhr, Eliot Quataert, Chung-Pei Ma +1

We perform hydrodynamical simulations of major galaxy mergers using new methods for calculating the growth of massive black holes (BH) in galactic nuclei and their impact on the su…
