Hydrodynamic simulations of He-shell flash convection
We present the first hydrodynamic, multi-dimensional simulations of He-shell flash convection. Specifically, we investigate the properties of shell convection at a time immediately before the He-luminosity peak during the 15 thermal pulse of a stellar evolution track with initially two solar masses and metallicity Z = 0.01. This choice is a representative example of a low-mass asymptotic giant ...
متن کاملMulti-dimensional Radiation/hydrodynamic Simulations of Protoneutron Star Convection
Based on multi-dimensional multi-group radiation hydrodynamic simulations of core-collapse supernovae with the VULCAN/2D code, we study the physical conditions within and in the vicinity of the nascent protoneutron star (PNS). Conclusions of this work are threefold: First, as before, we do not see any large-scale overturn of the inner PNS material. Second, we see no evidence of doubly-diffusive...
متن کاملHydrodynamic description of granular convection.
We present a hydrodynamic model that captures the essence of granular dynamics in a vibrating bed. We carry out the linear stability analysis and uncover the instability mechanism that leads to the appearance of the convective rolls via a supercritical bifurcation of a bouncing solution. We also explicitly determine the onset of convection as a function of control parameters and confirm our pic...
متن کاملScalability of Hydrodynamic Simulations
Many hydrodynamic processes can be studied in a way that is scalable over a vastly relevant physical parameter space. We systematically examine this scalability, which has so far only briefly discussed in astrophysical literature. We show how the scalability is limited by various constraints imposed by physical processes and initial conditions. Using supernova remnants in different environments...
متن کاملConvection Simulations
The abrupt transition from convective to radiative energy transport at the surface of many stars holds the key to much of the stars internal structure. Given suuciently detailed information about such properties as the equation of state and opacities, ab initio models of these layers may be constructed by solving the coupled, three-dimensional gas dynamics and radiative transfer equations. The ...
