Qwind: Non-hydrodynamical model for AGN line-drive winds
Quera-Bofarull, Arnau; Done, Chris; Lacey, Cedric; McDowell, Jonathan C.; Risaliti, Guido; Elvis, Martin
Qwind simulates the launching and acceleration phase of line-driven winds in the context of AGN accretion discs. The wind is modeled as a set of streamlines originating on the surface of the AGN accretion disc, and evolved following their equation of motion, given by the balance between radiative and gravitational force.
