The Importance of Realistic Starting Models for Hydrodynamic Simulations of Stellar Collisions
Alison Sills, James C. Lombardi
We demonstrate the necessity of using realistic stellar models taken from stellar evolution codes, as opposed to polytropes, for starting models in smoothed particle hydrodynamics…

Evolution of Stellar Collision Products in Globular Clusters -- I. Head-on Collisions
Alison Sills, James C. Lombardi, Charles D. Bailyn +3
We explore the evolution of collisionally merged stars in the blue straggler region of the HR diagram. The starting models for our stellar evolution calculations are the results of…
