Discovery of another peculiar radial distribution of Blue Stragglers in Globular Clusters: The case of 47 Tuc
Francesco R. Ferraro, Giacomo Beccari, Robert T. Rood +3
We have used high resolution WFPC2-HST and wide field ground-based observations to construct a catalog of blue straggler stars (BSS) in the globular cluster 47 Tuc spanning the ent…
A Two-Phase Chemical Enrichment Model for the Milky Way Globular Cluster System
Marcel L. VanDalfsen, William E. Harris
Many globular cluster systems have a distinct bimodal metallicity distribution function (MDF) which has strikingly similar features in many large galaxies of all types. By using th…
Giant planet formation from disk instability; cooling and heating
Lucio Mayer, James Wadsley, Thomas Quinn +1
We present the results of high resolution SPH simulations of the evolution of gravitationally unstable protoplanetary disks. We report on calculations in which the disk is evolved…
The evolution of gravitationally unstable protoplanetary disks: fragmentation and possible giant planet formation
Lucio Mayer, Thomas Quinn, James Wadsley +1
We carry out a large set of very high resolution, three dimensional smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations describing the evolution of gravitationally unstable gaseous p…
The MACHO Project Large Magellanic Cloud Variable Star Inventory. XIII. Fourier Parameters for the First Overtone RR Lyrae Variables and the LMC Distance
C. Alcock, D. R. Alves, T. S. Axelrod +21
Fourier coefficents have been derived for the and light curves of 785 overtone RR Lyrae variables in 16 MACHO fields near the bar of the LMC. The and coef…
On the formation of the Magellanic Stream
C. Mastropietro, B. Moore, L. Mayer +2
We use high resolution N-Body/SPH simulations to study the hydro-dynamical and gravitational interaction between the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Milky Way. We model the dark and…
