SPH Radiative Hydrodynamics Methods
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 April 2011
Abstract
In this paper, we review the radiative hydrodynamics methods based upon Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics(SPH). There are already various implementations so far, which can be categorized into three types: moment equation solvers, Monte Carlo methods, and ray-tracing schemes. These codes have been applied to various astrophysical problems including dynamics of dense proto-stellar cores, photoionization feedback of massive stars on molecular clouds, radiative feedback in the early universe, etc. Among these different methods, we focus on the ray-tracing schemes. We also describe one particular ray-tracing code RSPH in some details.
