Description
Hall-MHD equations can model finite Larmor radius effects like magnetic reconnection. In this model, the MHD equations are augmented with a Ohm's law that includes magnetic resistivity, electron inertia and the Hall effect. The first phase of the project considers the Hall induction equations and designs stable high-order finite difference schemes to approximate them. In the second phase, we aim to develop robust pre-conditioners for a DG discretization of the Hall induction equations. These methods are coupled with standard MHD solvers to simulate the full Hall-MHD equations in an efficient manner.
