研究実績の概要 |
In Fiscal Year 2015 the project was carried on further, together with independent collaborators, but not with any student (research assistant), since I could not hire any because of bureaucratic reasons related to my position in the university. Anyway, the coupling of the finite-differencing code and the particle-in-cell code has proceeded past the stage of calibration and the first investigations of physical scenarios in approximated dynamics are being performed, focusing primarily on regions surrounding neutron-star surfaces. The work has been focussed on finding the sufficient resolution to exchange data between the finite-difference code and the particle-in-cell code, also with heavy use of mesh-refinement techniques, through which we have achieved competitively small spacing. In order to speed up work, I have finally been able to hire a research assistant for two months in FY 2016 and another assistant is scheduled to join me in a few months for the duration of a month.

3: やや遅れている
理由
Actually the project has proceeded as scheduled in FY 2015, but there is some delay due to the delay accumulated in the previous FY 2014. Furthermore, also in FY 2015 I was not able to hire research assistants, but I have one now in FY 2016. This may speed up progress.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
The plans for the research scheme will not be substantially changed. However, this fiscal year I will dedicate more time to this project, together with collaborators and research assistants, so progress should be faster. As mentioned above, I have found a research assistant who may assist me in this project.
