HighFive
X-Ray Burst Simulation on Accreting Neutron Star
(group 5)
Members: Alexander Long (Input Person), Adam Jones (Analysis Person), Raditya Utama (Code Person)
Original Goals
- Simulate Bondi accretion on VH1 with appropriate condition
- Run XRB reaction network on xnet
- Link the inputs and outputs between both simulations
- Plot some thermodynamic variables over time
- Study the effect of some parametric changes
VH1 and Bondi Accretion Model
To simulate the accretion of matter onto the surface of a neutron star in a binary system we decided to use VH1 setup with a Bondi accretion model.
Some important parameters within VH1:
- 1D Spherically Symmetric: ngeom = 2
- Reflective boundary at surface: nleft = 0
- Fixed value boundary above neutron star: nright = 2
- Minimum value of grid: Xmin = 10 km
- Maximum value of grid: Xmax = 50 km
