Stokes Theorem and the Equations of GRMHD

Astrophysics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

This paper provides an alternate derivation of the equations used in the GRMHD code of De Villiers and Hawley using Stokes Theorem. This derivation places the published form of the discretized equations of GRMHD in a broader context, and suggests possible future directions for numerical work.
