    Abstract

    We consider Implicit-Explicit (IMEX) Runge-Kutta schemes for hyperbolic and
    kinetic equations in the diffusion limit. In such regime the system relaxes
    towards a parabolic convection-diffusion equation and it is desirable to have a
    method that is able to capture the asymptotic behavior with an implicit
    treatment of the limiting diffusive terms. To this goal we reformulate the
    problem by properly combining the limiting diffusion flux with the convective
    flux. This, however, introduces new difficulties due to the dependence of the
    stiff source term on the gradient.

    Abstract

    We consider new implicit-explicit (IMEX) Runge-Kutta methods for hyperbolic
    systems of conservation laws with stiff relaxation terms. The explicit part is
    treated by a strong-stability-preserving (SSP) scheme, and the implicit part is
    treated by an L-stable diagonally implicit Runge-Kutta methods (DIRK). The
    schemes proposed are asymptotic preserving (AP) in the zero relaxation limit.
    High accuracy in space is obtained by Weighted Essentially Non Oscillatory
    (WENO) reconstruction. After a description of the mathematical properties of
    the schemes, several applications will be presented.
