| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developped a new parallel Vlasov-Poisson solver for simulations of self-gravitating systems. the basic scheme is based on spatially 5-th order or 7th order interpolation, and assures monotonicity and positivity preservation of the velocity distribution function. We performed a series of test simulations including free-streaming and nonlinear Landau damping, and confirmed that our new scheme performs better than the other existing methods. In the final project year, we developed a hybrid code that integrates the Vlasov equation to follow the dynamics of cosmic neutrinos, whereas following the structure formation by a conventional N-body method. We performed cosmological simulations using the hybrid code.
