Simulation of astrophysical fluid flow

From MaRDI portal





These lectures discuss the techniques, the results, and the implications of simulations of astrophysical flows. Because a complete review of this vast and rapidly growing research field is far beyond the scope of this lectures, the author restricts himself to the discussion of some specific, personally biased astrophysical flow problems. The presentation is clear, well-organized, and is illustrated by a rich graphical material, including many impressive color-coded plots. Contents: 1. Introduction; 2. Simulations: a link between observation and theory; 3. Simulations of core collapse supernovae; 4. Hydrodynamics and thermonuclear burning; 5. Simulation of astrophysical jets; 6. Smoothed particle hydrodynamics; References (circa 600). For the entire collection see [Zbl 0901.00013].
