1. 1d: steady cloud of gas
2. 1d: hit it with supernova shock / plain wave
3. 1d: add source → turn cloud into wind
4. move to 2d
5. parametric study: What is the kill radius at given explosion energy and solar wind strength?
6. production of the “Battle of the Winds” movie blockbuster

1. 1d version of steady cloud of gas created using the following parameters:

Pressure : pcloud = 1

  Density : rcloud = 1
  Velocity : ucloud = 0 
  Ambient density : ramb = 1e-04
- Then we created a 1d shock wave and let it hit the cloud using the following parameters:
- Pressure : pshock = 10000
- Density : rshock = 0.5
- Velocity : vshock = 0
