{\bf ABOUT THE COVER}\\
\vspace{2em}
\end{centering}

The cover image is a visualization of the temperature field computed by the Nek5000 thermal hydraulics simulator.
In the simulation twin inlets pump air into a box with a temperature difference between the 2 inlets.
%The air mixes in the box and exists through an outlet.
The visualization is provided by Matthew Larsen at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

%% The cover image is a visualization of the gas entropy in a supernova that shows the instability of its shock.
%% The visualization is generated from a structured data containing 80 million cells.
%% The data are made available by John Blondin at the North Carolina State University and Anthony Mezzacappa at Oak Ridge National Laboratory.
%% The visualization is provided by Matthew Larsen at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

The interior cover image represents seismic wave propagation through the Earth.
The visualization is provided by Matthew Larsen at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

The cover design was done by Steve Jordan.
