  3. Overview • Cactus 3 • Computational Modules (thorns) • Initial data • MAHC hydro • Newtonian hydro • Boson stars • EOS tables • Analysis tools • Tests • Physics • Cactus 4 conversion

  4. Initial data • Single NS (TOV) • Rotating NS • Head-on colliding NS • Quasi-equil. Data (Meudon Data) • PN initial data • Test Data (FRW, shockwave) • IVP solver • Coupled Ham. & mom. Constraints!!! • No assumptions of conformal flatness!!!

  5. MAHC hydro • HRSC methods • Roe, Marquina, fluxsplit, ENO, HLLE • coupled to various evolution systems • ADM, Conformal systems, Bona-Masso • well tested (gr-qc/9811015)

  6. Newtonian Hydro • HRSC methods • primarily Roe solver • tested on multiple systems • single NS • head-on NSs • orbiting NSs • multiple test indicators • angular momentum • mass • energy

  7. Boson stars • Coupled to a variety of GR evolution systems • stable over a long time scale

  8. EOS tables • 1D tables • tested for polytropic EOS • other EOS are in, but not yet tested • thermo. consistent interp. • 2D tables • still under development • still need incorporated into evolution eqs.

  9. Analysis tools • Apparent horizon finders • waveform extraction • Newman-Penrose quantities • constraint evaluators

  10. Tests • gr-qc/9811015 • still fighting referee • variety of initial data • shocktube • FRW • single static NS • boosted NS

  11. Tests: GR-hydro coupling • 3 hydro methods tested: Roe, fluxsplit and Marquina • 3 GR evolution systems: ADM, BM-Einstein and BM Ricci • often different finite-difference schemes (leapfrog, icn, etc.) • TEST EVERY COMBINATION OF EACH!!!

  12. Tests: GR-hydro coupling(2nd order time & space)

  13. Tests: boosted NS

  14. Tests: boosted NS

  15. Tests: boosted NS

  16. Physics • Phys. Rev. D 58 103002 (1998), gr-qc/9904041, gr-qc/9909059, Shapiro conjecture head-on collision of NS • evolution of quasi-equilibrium NS data (just beginning) • more on the way ;-) • How to do physics with cactus

  17. Physics: head-on collision • Shapiro conjecture: can thermal pressure (from shock heating) delay the collapse in the head-on collision of NS s? Conjecture holds regardless of mass. • Take 2 1.4 solar mass NS (polytropic EOS, G=2, K=1.16x105 cm5/g/s2), give them a velocity corresponding to Newtonian infall from infinity, solve the IVP and see what happens!

  18. Physics: head-on collision

  19. Physics: head-on collision

  20. Physics: head-on collision

  21. Physics: Meudon data

  22. Physics: How to use Cactus • Cactus is not a black box • many untested combinations of parameters • top down approach • check all equations/routines • test for consistency of all terms • test for convergence • bottom up approach • make sure results look "reasonable" • make sure results are "right" • test for convergence

  23. Cactus 4.0 • Most hydro thorns still under conversion • What we will gain: • AMR infrastructure • better interfacing between GR-hydro solvers • more users=more developers & debuggers
