A relativistic version of Davis' method has been used by Koide
et al. [82,
81
,
129
] in 2D and 3D simulations of relativistic magneto-hydrodynamic
jets with moderate Lorentz factors. Although the results obtained
are encouraging, the coarse grid zoning used in these simulations
and the relative smallness of the beam flow Lorentz factor (4.56,
beam speed
) does not allow for a comparison with Riemann-solver-based HRSC
methods in the ultra-relativistic limit.
