Abstract

Studying the multidimensional, time-dependent and/or highly nonlinear dynamics of astrophysical plasmas usually requires numerical methods, however, developing accurate and robust algorithms for compressible MHD and/or radiation MHD is still an active area of research. Recent advances in the development of numerical algorithms are described, and results from applications of the methods to the study of a variety of problems in astrophysics is discussed.
