The fourth data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
- J. Adelman-McCarthy, M. Agüeros, +138 authors D. Zucker
- Physics

This paper describes the Fourth Data Release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS), including all survey-quality data taken through 2004 June. The data release includes five-band photometric data… Expand
The Structural evolution of substructure
- E. Hayashi, J. Navarro, J. E. Taylor, J. Stadel, T. Quinn
- Physics
- 1 March 2002
We investigate the evolution of substructure in cold dark matter (CDM) halos using N-body simulations of tidal stripping of substructure halos within a static host potential. We find that halos… Expand
The Formation and Extent of the Solar System Comet Cloud
- M. Duncan, T. Quinn, S. Tremaine
- Physics
- 1 March 1987
The formation of the solar system comet cloud and its subsequent evolution over an interval equal to the age of the solar system are simulated. Assuming that the comets formed in the outer planetary… Expand
BEYOND INSIDE-OUT GROWTH : FORMATION AND EVOLUTION OF DISK OUTSKIRTS
- R. Rovskar, V. Debattista, Gregory S. Stinson, T. Quinn, T. Kaufmann, J. Wadsley
- Physics
- 29 October 2007
We have performed a high mass and force resolution simulation of an idealized galaxy forming from dissipational collapse of gas embedded in a spherical dark matter halo. The simulation includes star… Expand
Implications of Stellar Migration for the Properties of Galactic Disks
- R. Rovskar, V. P. Debattista, T. Quinn, G. Stinson, J. Wadsley
- Physics
- 1 August 2008
Stars in disks of spiral galaxies are usually assumed to remain roughly at their birth radii. This assumption is built into decades of modeling of the evolution of stellar populations in our own… Expand
Making other earths: dynamical simulations of terrestrial planet formation and water delivery
- S. Raymond, T. Quinn, +8 authors Ãz
- Physics
- 9 August 2003
We present results from 44 simulations of late stage planetary accretion, focusing on the delivery of volatiles (primarily water) to the terrestrial planets. Our simulations include both planetary… Expand
The long-term evolution of orbits in the solar system: A mapping approach
- M. Duncan, T. Quinn, S. Tremaine
- Physics
- 1 December 1989
Abstract We derive a mapping that approximates the restricted circulat three-body problem (Sun, planet, test particle) when the eccentricity ofr test particle is small and its semimajor axis is close… Expand
Making Galaxies in a Cosmological Context: The Need for Early Stellar Feedback
- G. Stinson, C. Brook, +7 authors U. Washington
- Physics
- 31 July 2012
We introduce the Making Galaxies in a Cosmological Context (MaGICC) program of smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) simulations. We describe a parameter study of galaxy formation simulations of an… Expand
A Three Million Year Integration of the Earth's Orbit
- T. Quinn, S. Tremaine, M. Duncan
- Physics
- 1 June 1991
The equations of motion of the nine planets and the Earth's spin axis are integrated for 3.05 million years into the past. The equations include the dominant relativistic corrections and corrections… Expand
