Abstract

This paper presents a new hydrodynamic model of interacting galaxies based on the joint solution of multicomponent hydrodynamic equations, first moments of the collisionless Boltzmann equation and the Poisson equation for gravity. Using this model, it is possible to formulate a unified numerical method for solving hyperbolic equations. This numerical method has been implemented for hybrid supercomputers with Intel Xeon Phi accelerators. The collision of spiral and disk galaxies considering the star formation process, supernova feedback and molecular hydrogen formation is shown as a simulation result.
