Funded Activity Summary

A New Way to Calculate Mixing and Burning in Stars. This project aims to develop a new method for calculating mixing and burning in stars, by combining the results of supercomputer calculations with a novel 2-stream mixing idea. It will develop new techniques suitable for studying the long-term evolution of hot gases that are both mixing and burning at the same time. Expected outcomes will be advances in computational gas dynamics, a robust new model for mixing in stars, and an improved understanding of the production of the heaviest elements. Benefits will include advances in computational gas dynamics, astronomical modelling, and strengthened research connections with astronomers and computational scientists in the UK and Sweden.
