Planetary dynamics in stellar clusters
Ian A. Bonnell, Kester W. Smith, Melvyn B. Davies +1
We investigate how the formation and evolution of extrasolar planetary systems can be affected by stellar encounters that occur in the crowded conditions of a stellar cluster. Usin…
Merging neutron stars: asymmetric systems
S. Rosswog, M. B. Davies, F. -K. Thielemann +1
Results of 3D, Newtonian hydrodynamic calculations of the last stages of the inspiral and the final coalescence of neutron star binary systems are described. The focus is on sligth…
The violent past of Cygnus X-2
Ulrich Kolb, Melvyn Davies, Andrew King +1
Cygnus X-2 appears to be the descendant of an intermediate-mass X-ray binary (IMXB). Using Mazzitelli's (1989) stellar code we compute detailed evolutionary sequences for the syste…
