Numerical Particle Methods Group

The workgroup on numerical particle methods is part of late Prof. Kley's department of Computational Physics. Our research is focused on meshfree particle methods such as Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics, Molecular Dynamics and Tree algorithms and their application on astrophysical processes.

Research topics Computational Physics and High Performance Computing Smooth(ed) Particle Hydrodynamics Protoplanetary discs and embedded protoplanet evolution Circumbinary discs Planetesimal and planetary embryo formation processes Impacts and collisions	the group before the pandemic, a long time ago in an universe far far away, © Evita Vavilina
