Scientific paper

A linearized Riemann solver (Glaister, 1988) was implemented into a Lagrangian hydrodynamical code, and it was applied to spherically symmetric stellar collapse. A sample of stellar collapse calculations was carried out, with this code and a standard finite difference scheme which uses the artificial viscosity technique. The initial model and the equation of state was kept fixed to be able to compare the two methods directly. Differences in the behavior of the velocity field and the global energetics of the collapse are found.
