THIS WEEK'S SCOOP

Over the break, I finished the exact Reimann solver program. The results are here: ​https://clover.pas.rochester.edu/trac/astrobear/wiki/u/erica/ExactRiemannSolver

Next I will be learning about approximate reimann solvers. I will begin reading Toro chapter 5 this week.

I also finished paper figures, here:

I had to adjust the old script to make the plots look better - sampling from smaller sized zones as the resolution increased over the sim. The script now samples shells of the same radius as the smallest dx on the grid at any time. This is much more accurate. The plots look pretty good, but the BP is still wonkey despite the radial averaging. I wonder if here I should just fit a smooth curve to the data?

The Intro for the paper is nearly done:

Would like to begin moving this wiki material into a latex pdf this week as well.
