A Multistep Algorithm for the Radiation Hydrodynamical Transport of Cosmological Ionization Fronts and Ionized Flows
Radiation hydrodynamical transport of ionization fronts in the next generation of cosmological reionization simulations holds the promise of predicting UV escape fractions from first principles as well as investigating the role of photoionization in feedback processes and structure formation. We present a multistep integration scheme for radiative transfer and hydrodynamics for accurate propaga...
متن کاملThree-dimensional Dynamical Instabilities in Galactic Ionization Fronts
Ionization front instabilities have long been of interest for their suspected role in a variety of phenomena in the galaxy, from the formation of bright rims and ’elephant trunks’ in nebulae to triggered star formation in molecular clouds. Numerical treatments of these instabilities have historically been limited in both dimensionality and input physics, leaving important questions about their ...
متن کاملHydrodynamical Drag in Cosmological Simulations
We present a study of hydrodynamic drag forces in smoothed particle simulations. In particular, the deceleration of a resolution-limited cold clump of gas moving through a hot medium is examined. It is found that the drag for subsonic velocities exceeds that predicted by simple physical approximations. This is shown to be a result of the hydrodynamical method which encourages the accretion of p...
متن کاملDisk Instabilities and Cooling Fronts
Accretion disk outbursts, and their subsequent decline, offer a unique opportunity to constrain the physics of angular momentum transport in hot accretion disks. Recent work has centered on the claim by Cannizzo et al. that the exponential decay of luminosity following an outburst in black hole accretion disk systems is only consistent with a particular form for the dimensionless viscosity, α =...
متن کاملSelf-consistent solution of cosmological radiation-hydrodynamics and chemical ionization
We consider a PDE system comprising compressible hydrodynamics, flux-limited diffusion radiation transport and chemical ionization kinetics in a cosmologicallyexpanding universe. Under an operator-split framework, the cosmological hydrodynamics equations are solved through the Piecewise Parabolic Method, as implemented in the Enzo community hydrodynamics code. The remainder of the model, compri...
