Abstract

In this work we use axisymmetrical numerical simulations with the Flash Code to calculate the gravitational drag force felt by a gravitational Plummer sphere when moving in a homogeneous medium. We revisit the linear scenario studied by Ostriker (1999) as well as the nonlinear scenario studied by Kim & Kim (2009) focusing in the hydrodynamics and in the integrated force.
