Solar-type stars generate spherical winds, which are pressure driven flows, that start subsonic, reach the sound speed at the sonic point and transition to supersonic flows. The sonic point, mathematically corresponds to a singularity of…

Cosmological simulations still lack numerical resolution or physical processes to simulate dwarf galaxies in sufficient details. Accurate numerical simulations of individual dwarf galaxies are thus still in demand. We aim at (i) studying in…
