Evolutions in 3D numerical relativity using fixed mesh refinement

TL;DR: This work presents results of 3D numerical simulations using a finite difference code featuring fixed mesh refinement (FMR), in which a subset of the computational domain is refined in space and time.
Journal ArticleDOI

A large-scale dynamo and magnetoturbulence in rapidly rotating core-collapse supernovae

TL;DR: It is shown that hydromagnetic turbulence in rapidly rotating protoneutron stars produces an inverse cascade of energy, and a large-scale, ordered toroidal field is found that is consistent with the formation of bipolar magnetorotationally driven outflows.
Journal ArticleDOI

Introduction to isolated horizons in numerical relativity

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a coordinate-independent method for extracting the mass and angular momentum of a black hole in numerical simulations, based on the isolated horizon framework, which is applicable both at late times when the black hole has reached equilibrium, and at early times where the black holes are widely separated.
