Data from "Short-Lived Gravitational Instability in Isolated Irradiated Discs"

<p>The paper by Rowther et al. (2024) simulates the evolution of irradiated gravitationally unstable protoplanetary discs with live radiative transfer using Phantom (Price et al. 2018) coupled with MCFOST (Pinte et al. 2006, 2009). The codes used to perform the simulations are available at&nbsp;</p> <ul> <li>Phantom -- <a href="https://github.com/danieljprice/phantom" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://github.com/danieljprice/phantom</a></li> <li>MCFOST -- <a href="https://github.com/cpinte/mcfost" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://github.com/cpinte/mcfost</a></li> </ul> <p>The dataset contains the following data to recreate any of the figures:</p> <ol> <li>Selected snapshots of the 5 simulations shown in the paper.&nbsp;</li> <li>Post-processed data to recreate the line-plots shown in the paper.</li> <li>.fits files of the synthetic continuum images created by post-processing the simulation snapshot with MCFOST at 1.3mm.</li> </ol> <p>To recreate any of the simulations in the paper, all relevant files required are in <strong>Simulations.zip</strong>.</p> <ul> <li><strong>.setup:&nbsp;</strong>The file used by phantomsetup to create the initial conditions of the disc.</li> <li><strong>.in:&nbsp;</strong>The file used by phantom to perform the simulation.</li> <li><strong>.para:</strong> A file containing the parameters used by MCFOST to perform the Radiative Transfer calculations.</li> <li>The files for the 0.1 Solar mass disc can be identified by the prefix <strong>Md0p1</strong>. Similarly, the prefix <strong>Md0p25&nbsp;</strong>identifies the files for 0.25 Solar mass disc.</li> </ul> <p>The data to recreate any of the figures in the paper are found in <strong>Figure_*.zip</strong>.</p> <p>The binary code snapshots (<strong>Md0p1_01400, Md0p25_00300</strong> etc.) containing the raw data (particle positions, velocities, thermal energy etc.) can be visualised by <a href="https://github.com/danieljprice/splash" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Splash</a> (Price 2007) or <a href="https://github.com/ttricco/sarracen/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sarracen</a> (Harris &amp; Tricco 2023). The latter was used to create the figures in the paper.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
