| - Having succesfully performed the above two steps, we replced the steady cloud of gas with a source generating outgoing mass flow which basically represents 1d version of the solar wind. For the same, we introduced a velocity of 5 at the center in two oppisite directions and a density of 2. | - Having succesfully performed the above two steps, we replced the steady cloud of gas with a source generating outgoing mass flow which basically represents 1d version of the solar wind.

| - Myself and Raditya, figured out the input parameters for the problem using Brian Field's paper on "Supernova Collisions with the Heliosphere". We tested those parameters on the 1D set-up for the problem, basically we replaced the random numbers we used on 06/02 with real numbers describing the problem in 1D format. | - Myself and Raditya, figured out the input parameters for the problem using Brian Field's paper on "Supernova Collisions with the Heliosphere".

| - The resulting density, pressure and velocity plots in 1D looked reasonably good. So we gave those parameters to Alex to be used into the 2D code. | - The resulting density, pressure and velocity plots in 1D looked reasonably good.

| - Changed the 2D inputs to more natural units ([L]=1 AU, [T]=1 yr, [M]=10^12 g) because VH-1 would crash when using the cgs system for our problem. | - Changed the 2D inputs to more natural units ([L]=1 AU, [T]=1 yr, [M]=10^12 g) because VH-1 would crash when using the cgs system for our problem. | ||

| + | - Did a parameter study on a reduced grid (6x2 AU, 300x100 gridpoints) to determine the dependence of the penetration radius on the densities of the SNR and solar wind. | ||
