The standard model for simulating neutron star mergers is ideal magnetohydrodynamics. In a series of papers we look at whether this model is good enough.

The Journal of Open Source Software promises that you can write a paper for them in under an hour. We put it to the test.

Mesnard and Barba produced a brilliant reproducibility paper, showing how hard it can be to get many details correct. In contrast to some previous reproducibility efforts they don't have a single number, or curve, that they want to reproduce in advance. Is this the best approach?

When writing a thank-you letter, how many lines do you put in your address?

Reproducible simulation is a big issue in scientific computation. This post looks at one of the last steps in the chain - the production of images, and the problems that causes.
