Toy Stars in two dimensions
Toy Stars are gas masses where the compressibility is treated without approximations but gravity is replaced by a force which, for any pair of masses, is along their line of centres and proportional to their separation. They provide an invaluable resource for testing the suitability of numerical codes for astrophysical gas dynamics. In this paper, we derive the equations for both small-amplitud...
متن کاملToy stars in one dimension
This paper describes a simple model of a star where compressibility is retained but the gravitational force is replaced by a force between pairs which is directed along their line of centres and proportional to their separation. This force was analysed by Newton. It may be considered the simplest many body force because the system reduces to a set of independent particles moving in a harmonic o...
متن کاملSimulating a toy model of electrodynamics in „1+1... dimensions
We show how to simulate a toy model of electrodynamics in 1+1 dimensions and describe several numerical experiments. The toy model is much simpler than ordinary electrodynamics, but shares many of the same physical features. For example, there are analogs to the electric and magnetic fields, and these fields generate forces between charged particles and support freely propagating radiation. Unl...
متن کاملA toy model of quantum electrodynamics in (1+1) dimensions
We present a toy model of quantum electrodynamics (QED) in (1 + 1) dimensions. The QED model is much simpler than QED in (3 + 1) dimensions but exhibits many of the same physical phenomena, and serves as a pedagogical introduction to both QED and quantum field theory in general. We show how the QED model can be derived by quantizing a toy model of classical electrodynamics, and we discuss the c...
متن کاملWhite dwarf stars in D dimensions
We determine the mass-radius relation of relativistic white dwarf stars (a self-gravitating degenerate Fermi gas at T = 0) in a D-dimensional universe and study the influence of the dimension of space on the laws of physics when we combine quantum mechanics, special relativity and gravity. We exhibit characteristic dimensions D = 1, D = 2, D = 3, D = 1 2 (3+ √ 17), D = 4, D = 2(1+ √ 2) and show...
