Book synopsis

This book leads directly to the most modern numerical techniques for compressible fluid flow, with special consideration given to astrophysical applications. Emphasis is put on high-resolution shock-capturing finite-volume schemes based on Riemann solvers. The applications of such schemes, in particular the PPM method, are given and include large-scale simulations of supernova explosions by core collapse and thermonuclear burning and astrophysical jets. Parts two and three treat radiation hydrodynamics. The power of adaptive (moving) grids is demonstrated with a number of stellar-physical simulations showing very crispy shock-front structures. TOC:Nonlinear Conservation Laws and Finite Volume Methods.- Radition Hydrodynamics.- Radiation Hydrodynamics: Numerical Aspects and Applications.- Simulation of Astrophysical Fluid Flow.
