Alumni: Andrea Mignone, 2004 Ph.D., University of Chicago, 2004 Associate Professor, University of Torino Webpage My main reasearch interests focus on computational modelling of astrophysical fluid flows with applications to accretion/ejection systems (accretion disks, jets from Young Stellar Objects and Active Galactic Nuclei), radiative shocks, fluid instabilities and Large Eddy Simulations. Development of numerical methods for finite volume & finite difference schemes, Riemann solvers and boundary value problems. University Of Chicago' Class Of 2004 Ph.D. Thesis: "The dynamics of radiative shock waves: Linear and nonlinear evolution"; Scientific Advisor: Robert Rosner |
