High-order methods for the simulation of hydromagnetic instabilities in core-collapse supernovae
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 08 June 2011
Abstract
We present an assessment of the accuracy of a recently developed MHD code used to study hydromagnetic flows in supernovae and related events. The code, based on the constrained transport formulation, incorporates unprecedented ultra-high-order methods (up to 9th order) for the reconstruction and the most accurate approximate Riemann solvers. We estimate the numerical resistivity of these schemes in tearing instability simulations.
