Review text

We present an algorithm for simulation of self-gravitating astrophysical fluids. The advantages include a large dynamic range, parallelizability, high resolution per grid element, and fast execution speed. The code is based on a finite volume flux conservative total-variation-diminishing scheme for the shock capturing, and an iterative multigrid solver for the gravity. The grid is a time-dependent field, whose motion is described by a generalized potential flow. Approximately constant mass per cell can be obtained, providing all advantages of a Lagrangian scheme. The grid deformation guarantees a regular and well behaved grid geometry, where nearest neighbour relationships remain constant. The full hydrodynamic fluid equations are implemented on the curvilinear moving grid, allowing for arbitary fluid flow relative to the grid geometry. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0898.00021].
