Charges and Magnetic Fields of the Slowly-rotating Neutron Stars
Hongsu Kim, Hyung Mok Lee, Chul H. Lee +1
In association with the Goldreich-Julian's magnetic braking mechanism to explain the luminosity of radio pulsars as a result of their spin-down, it is of some interest to explore h…
Stellar Evolution and Dynamics in Star Clusters
Simon F. Portegies Zwart, Christopher A. Tout, Hyung Mok Lee
Dynamical models of star clusters are maturing in the sense that effects other than simple point particle dynamics are taken into account. We summarize the relevance of and prospec…
Evolution of Debris of a Tidally Disrupted Star by a Massive Black Hole: Development of a Hybrid Scheme of the SPH and TVD Methods
Hyung Mok Lee, Sungsoo S. Kim
The evolution of the stellar debris after tidal disruption due to the super massive black hole's tidal force is difficult to solve numerically because of the large dynamical range…
Close Encounters between a Neutron Star and a Main-Sequence Star
Hyung Mok Lee, Sungsoo S. Kim, Hyesung Kang
We have examined consequences of strong tidal encounters between a neutron star and a normal star using SPH as a possible formation mechanism of isolated recycled pulsars in globul…
Influence of the Stellar Mass Function on the Evaporation Rate of Tidally Limited Postcollapse Globular Clusters
Hyung Mok Lee, Jeremy Goodman
We study the rate of escape of stars (``evaporation'') from tidally-limited postcollapse globular clusters having a power-law distribution of stellar masses. We use a multi-mass Fo…
