Nonlinear Dynamical Friction of a Circular-Orbit Perturber in a Gaseous Medium
Woong-Tae Kim
We use three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations to investigate the nonlinear gravitational responses of gas to, and the resulting drag forces on, very massive perturbers moving o…

A Semi-empirical Mass-loss Rate in Short-period Cataclysmic Variables
Fedir V. Sirotkin, Woong-Tae Kim
The mass-loss rate of donor stars in cataclysmic variables (CVs) is of paramount importance in the evolution of short-period CVs. Observed donors are oversized in comparison with t…

Galactic Spiral Shocks with Thermal Instability in Vertically Stratified Galactic Disks
Chang-Goo Kim, Woong-Tae Kim, Eve C. Ostriker
Galactic spiral shocks are dominant morphological features and believed to be responsible for substructure formation within spiral arms in disk galaxies. They can also contribute a…
