PION: Simulating bow shocks and circumstellar nebulae around massive stars
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 August 2024
Abstract
Expanding nebulae are produced by mass loss from stars, especially during late stages of evolution. We describe the algorithms and methods implemented in the radiation-magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) code PION for highly scalable simulations using static mesh-refinement. We present results from 3D MHD simulations of bow shocks around runaway massive stars, and of the expansion of a fast wind from a Wolf-Rayet star into the slow wind from a previous red supergiant phase of evolution. PION is free software that can be downloaded from https://www.pion.ie/
