CMACIONIZE 2.0: a novel task-based approach to Monte Carlo radiation transfer (ADS record)
Vandenbroucke B., Camps P., 2020, Astronomy & Astrophysics, 641, A66
Paper that describes the new task-based Monte Carlo radiative transfer algorithm that underlies CMacIonize version 2.0.
Radiation hydrodynamics simulations of the evolution of the diffuse ionized gas in disc galaxies (ADS record)
Vandenbroucke B., Wood K., 2019, Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 488, 1977
Paper that explores the dynamic equilibrium between the vertical structure of a galactic disc (patch) and the photoionizing radiation from UV luminous sources in the plane of the disc. All simulations in this work were performed using CMacIonize.
Massive star formation via torus accretion: the effect of photoionization feedback (ADS record)
Sartorio N. S., Vandenbroucke B., Falceta-Gonçalves D., Wood K., Keto E., 2019, Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 486, 5171
Paper exploring the shape and critical luminosity for HII regions surrounding massive stars embedded in an accretion torus. All simulations in this paper were performed using CMacIonize.
Testing the stability of supersonic ionized Bondi accretion flows with radiation hydrodynamics (ADS record)
Vandenbroucke B., Sartorio N. S., Wood K., Lund K., Falceta-Gonçalves D., Haworth T. J., Bonnell I., Keto E., Tootill D., 2019, Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 485, 3771
Paper about the numerical aspects of spherically symmetric Bondi accretion with radiation. At the end of the paper, the effect of 1D stability issues on 3D RHD simulations is illustrated using CMacIonize.
Radiative transfer calculations of the diffuse ionized gas in disc galaxies with cosmic ray feedback (ADS record)
Vandenbroucke B., Wood K., Girichidis P., Hill A. S., Peters T., 2018, Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 476, 4032
Study of the diffuse ionized gas in disc galaxies that used CMacIonize to post-process snapshots from the SILCC project.
The Monte Carlo photoionization and moving-mesh radiation hydrodynamics code CMacIonize (ADS record)
Vandenbroucke B., Wood K., 2018, Astronomy and Computing, 23, 40
CMacIonize code paper.
