Mixing and overshooting in surface convection zones of DA white dwarfs: first results from antares

Mixing and overshooting in surface convection zones of DA white dwarfs: first results from antares

We present results of a large, high resolution 3D hydrodynamical simulation of the surface layers of a DA white dwarf (WD) with $T_{\rm eff}=11800$ K and $\log(g)=8$ using the ANTARES code, the widest and deepest such simulation to date. Our simulations are in good agreement with previous calculations in the …
