ABSTRACT:
"Inside Views of a Rapidly Spinning Star" shows a sampler of visualized variables from a star simulation generated with ASH (Anelastic Spherical Harmonic, originally developed at the University of Colorado) on Ranger at the Texas Advanced Computing Center. This simulated star is similar to our Sun in mass and composition but spinning five times faster. The movie compares the variables radial velocity, enstrophy, and velocity magnitude. *Note: Movie is in progress- title, credits, explanatory text and annotation are under development and will be added before final presentation (space needed was composed into this version)
