Tests of Spurious Transport in Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics
James C. Lombardi, Alison Sills, Frederic A. Rasio +1
We have performed a series of systematic tests to evaluate the effects of spurious transport in three-dimensional smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) calculations. Our tests inve…
Structure and Evolution of Nearby Stars with Planets. I. Short-Period Systems
Eric B. Ford, Frederic A. Rasio, Alison Sills
Using the Yale stellar evolution code, we have calculated theoretical models for nearby stars with planetary-mass companions in short-period nearly circular orbits: 51 Pegasi, Tau…
The Distribution of Collisionally Induced Blue Stragglers in the Colour-Magnitude Diagram
Alison Sills, Charles D. Bailyn
A primary production mechanism for blue stragglers in globular clusters is thought to be collisionally-induced mergers, perhaps mediated by dynamical encounters involving binary st…
