Hence the need of dust/gas numerical solutions, and analytical problems to benchmark them. In the seminal dustywave problem, we discover a regime where sound waves can not propagate through the mixture above a large critical dust fraction. We characterise this regime analytically, making it of use for testing accuracy of numerical solvers at large dust fractions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-04-28T14:20:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "large dust fractions", "propagation", "soundwaves", "large critical dust fraction", "seminal dustywave problem" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
