Conclusions:

  • First numerical simulations of magnetized, Moon-forming giant impacts

(Mullen & Gammie 2019, in prep).

  • Onset of the MRI in a Moon-forming giant impact debris disk with growth

times in agreement with linear theory (Balbus & Hawley 1992).

  • Magnetic turbulence promotes mixing (Gammie et al. 2016, arXiv:

1607.02132).

  • Accretion leads to processing through the boundary layer producing high

entropy material; the boundary layer sources sound waves (c.f., Belyaev et

  • al. 2016: arXiv:1709.01197) that propagate throughout the disk.

Caveats:

  • Quantitative studies of mixing from magnetic turbulence requires composition

variables (in development).

  • Need to separately track iron cores and silicate mantles (in development,

see Dr. Roseanne Cheng’s talk this afternoon!).

  • Need better treatment of EOS (in development).
  • Need open-BCs for gravitational potential (in development).
  • Not all of the protolunar disk will be well-coupled to the magnetic field; need

fast and efficient algorithms for resistive MHD (in development).

…towards multi-material resistive MHD with realistic EOS for astrophysical/planetary science applications
