| | 5 | == Mixing Problem == |
| | 6 | To understand the mixing properties of colliding flows we focused on non-shearing interactions. The gas density is fixed at 3 particles/cc (free fall time of 20.5 Myr) and the temperature at the equilibrium value of (730 K) giving a sound speed of 3.17 km/s and a Jeans length of 116 pc. |

| | 15 | There are 6 runs total, in which we vary the diameter of the flows between 20, 40, and 60 pc as well as the velocity from Mach 1.5 to Mach 3. |
