Validating Synthetic Galaxy Catalogs for Dark Energy Science in the LSST Era

Kavli Affiliate: Lindsey Bleem | First 5 Authors: Eve Kovacs, Yao-Yuan Mao, Michel Aguena, Anita Bahmanyar, Adam Broussard | Summary: Large simulation efforts are required to provide synthetic galaxy catalogs for ongoing and upcoming cosmology surveys. These extragalactic catalogs are being used for many diverse purposes covering a wide range of scientific topics. In order […]

Numerical Simulations of Convective 3-Dimensional Red Supergiant Envelopes

Kavli Affiliate: Lars Bildsten | First 5 Authors: Jared A. Goldberg, Yan-Fei Jiang, Lars Bildsten, , | Summary: We explore the three-dimensional properties of convective, luminous ($Lapprox10^{4.5}-10^{5}L_odot$), Hydrogen-rich envelopes of Red Supergiants (RSGs) based on radiation hydrodynamic simulations in spherical geometry using $texttt{Athena++}$. These computations comprise $approx30%$ of the stellar volume, include gas and radiation […]
