Review text

This paper deals with a numerical method for MHD simulations which have an exactly vanishing discrete divergence. The problem of solenoidal initialization is discussed and the simulation of a shock-interaction with a plasma cloud is presented. The paper may of interest to some one working on MHD simulations. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1054.93003].
