Analysing and predicting chaos from shocks and radiative cooling in simulations of cosmic structure formation

Mungara, Paresh (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2020)

It has long been appreciated that galaxy formation involves physics that can be subject to chaos. Numerical simulations introduce an additional source of noise in the form of approximations and floating point arithmetic ...
Investigating the impact of stellar feedback algorithms on galactic evolution

Pillsworth, Samantha R. (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2016)

The numerical algorithm used to implement stellar feedback in a galactic simulation will strongly influence the resulting disk. Using two disks from the MUGS2 simulation suite (Keller et al., 2015), we study the morphologies ...
