TL;DR: In this paper, a formulation of the approximate deconvolution model (ADM) for the large-eddy simulation of compressible flows in complex geometries is presented, where an approximation to the unfiltered solution is obtained from the filtered solution by a series expansion involving repeated filtering.
Abstract: A formulation of the approximate deconvolution model (ADM) for the large-eddy simulation (LES) of compressible flows in complex geometries is detailed. The model is applied to supersonic compression ramp flow where shock-turbulence interaction occurs. With the ADM approach an approximation to the unfiltered solution is obtained from the filtered solution by a series expansion involving repeated filtering. Given a sufficiently good approximation of the unfiltered solution at a time instant, the flux terms of the underlying filtered transport equations can be computed directly, avoiding the need to explicitly compute subgrid-scale closures. The effect of nonrepresented scales is modeled by a relaxation regularization involving a secondary filter operation and a dynamically estimated relaxation parameter. Results of the large-eddy simulation of the turbulent supersonic boundary layer along a compression ramp compare well with filtered DNS data. The filtered shock solution is correctly predicted by the ADM pr...

TL;DR: In this article, energy spectra of particles accelerated by the first-order Fermi mechanism are investigated at ultrarelativistic shock waves, outside the range of Lorentz factors considered previously.
Abstract: Energy spectra of particles accelerated by the first-order Fermi mechanism are investigated at ultrarelativistic shock waves, outside the range of Lorentz factors considered previously. For particle transport near the shock a numerical method involving small amplitude pitch-angle scattering is applied for flows with Lorentz factors $\gamma$ from 3 to 243. For large $\gamma$ shocks a convergence of derived energy spectral indices up to the value $\sigma_\infty \approx 2.2$ is observed for all considered turbulence amplitudes and magnetic field configurations. Recently the same index was derived for $\gamma$-ray bursts by Waxman [Astrophys. J. Lett. 485, L5 (1997)].

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors study the evolution of supernova core from the beginning of gravitational collapse of a 15Msolar star up to 1 second after core bounce and examine the influence of equation of state (EOS) on the postbounce evolution of shock wave in the late phase and the resulting thermal evolution of protoneutron star.
Abstract: We study the evolution of supernova core from the beginning of gravitational collapse of a 15Msolar star up to 1 second after core bounce. We present results of spherically symmetric simulations of core-collapse supernovae by solving general relativistic neutrino-radiation-hydrodynamics in the implicit time-differencing. We aim to explore the evolution of shock wave in a long term and investigate the formation of protoneutron star together with supernova neutrino signatures. These studies are done to examine the influence of equation of state (EOS) on the postbounce evolution of shock wave in the late phase and the resulting thermal evolution of protoneutron star. We make a comparison of two sets of EOS, that is, by Lattimer and Swesty (LS-EOS) and by Shen et al.(SH-EOS). We found that, for both EOSs, the core does not explode and the shock wave stalls similarly in the first 100 milliseconds after bounce. The revival of shock wave does not occur even after a long period in either cases. However, the recession of shock wave appears different beyond 200 milliseconds after bounce, having different thermal evolution of central core. A more compact protoneutron star is found for LS-EOS than SH-EOS with a difference in the central density by a factor of ~2 and a difference of ~10 MeV in the peak temperature. Resulting spectra of supernova neutrinos are different to the extent that may be detectable by terrestrial neutrino detectors.
