Continuum Equations for Stellar Dynamics
Edward A. Spiegel, Jean-Luc Thiffeault
The description of a stellar system as a continuous fluid represents a convenient first approximation to stellar dynamics, and its derivation from the kinetic theory is standard. T…

Luminosity Effects in Projected Fractals
R. Thieberger, E. A. Spiegel
We analyze examples of projected two dimensional fractals for the case where the objects studied have a Schechter luminosity function. Our results indicate that two dimensional cat…

Shear and Mixing in Oscillatory Doubly Diffusive Convection
Francesco Paparella, Edward A. Spiegel, Suzanne Talon
To investigate the mechanism of mixing in oscillatory doubly diffusive (ODD) convection, we truncate the horizontal modal expansion of the Boussinesq equations to obtain a simplifi…
