Here are some notes on Riemann Solvers, for more info the book "Riemann Solvers and Numerical Methods for Fluid Dynamics" (on which the notes are strongly based) by Eleuterio F. Toro is strongly recommended.

I have corrected some small errors and added a little text to the viscosity notes.

We will be looking at 1D adiabatic sound waves and how to keep them under control in this exercise. The due date will be around October 18, but we can discuss this in the next class.

There are two papers that should be read by all, they will feature in future lectures and will be discussed. The first is the original paper on the Stagger code (nearly the same method is used in Bifrost). The second on how to treat coronal heating by braiding by Galsgaard & Nordlund 1996.

When finished working with exercise set 1, please prepare a short written report or presentation (with figures and code snippets!) so that we can discuss your experiences. This will happen either Thursday September 20 or Friday September 21.

Lecture planned for next week (September 6) will be held Friday August 30 at 14.15 in room 303 at the ITA.

NB Forelesningene vil foreg? ved ITA, Rom 303 i begynnelse av semesteret (og antagelig fram til 1/11).
