    Contour advection tracer method in smoothed particle hydrodynamics 
    Fields, Tiffany M. (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2019)
    Studying the evolution of galaxies is important in understanding many other astrophysical phenomenon. However, this process required numerical work due to long timescales over which evolution occurs. To study the effects ...

    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 ...

    Properties of the simulated agn activity function in isolated galaxy mergers 
    Hani, Maan H. (Halifax, N.S. : Saint Mary's University, 2015)
    Numerical modeling of active galactic nuclei (AGN) poses many challenges, from uncertainties about the underlying physics to dynamic range issues. We present a study of simulated activity functions (AF; the differential ...
