Tidal Interactions and Disruptions of Giant Planets on Highly Eccentric Orbits
Joshua A. Faber, Frederic A. Rasio, Bart Willems
We calculate the evolution of planets undergoing a strong tidal encounter using smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH), for a range of periastron separations. We find that outside t…

Relativistic Calculations of Coalescing Binary Neutron Stars
Joshua Faber, Philippe Grandclément, Frederic Rasio
We have designed and tested a new relativistic Lagrangian hydrodynamics code, which treats gravity in the conformally flat approximation to general relativity. We have tested the r…
