Hydrogen-helium chemical and nuclear galaxy collision: hydrodynamic simulations on AVX-512 supercomputers (Q2656081): Difference between revisions

The authors study a computational hydrodynamic model of interacting galaxies. A model of gravitational multicomponent single-velocity hydrodynamics is employed to describe the interstellar medium. Further, a model based on the first moments of the collisionless Boltzmann equation describes the stellar component and dark matter. Subgrid processes of star formation and supernovae feedback, as well as cooling and heating functions are included in the model. The computational model takes into consideration, the chemical and nuclear reactions of the basic forms of hydrogen and helium before the formation of the helium hydride ion. The hydrodynamic equations have a suitable form for solving by a unified computational method based on the Harten-Lax-van Leer method. The governing equations and the computational scheme are written in vector form to use advanced vector extensions AVX-512. A parallel implementation of the model is presented. Results on the computational simulation experiments on the chemical dynamics of interacting galaxies are reported.
