Update 2/1

  • Read Matsakos paper. They use static rather than adaptive mesh, with flows modelled isothermally. 16 models (4 parameters, 2 values each - high/low flux, high/low escape velocity, large/small orbital radius, and weak/strong magnetic field). Some showed tail, some showed accretion stream - in the end, organized into 4 categories, based on relative strengths of planetary wind, gravity, and magnetic field - 2 categories with tails, 2 with accretion at 90 degrees or directly under planet.
  • Ran two more test runs of OutflowWind with longer simulation time and more frames.
