Hydrodynamical Simulations of Hα Emission in Algol Binaries
1997
International Astronomical Union Colloquium
Two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations of mass transfer in short period Algol type binaries were performed using the numerical code VH−1. This code uses the Piecewise Parabolic Method with a Lagrangian Remap. Our version of the code also accounts for radiative cooling processes. The purpose of performing the simulations was to study the Hαemission from circumstellar gas in the Algols. Using observational evidence from the literature to constrain the gas stream properties, hydrodynamical
