Constraining the Stellar Mass Function in the Galactic Center via Mass Loss from Stellar Collisions
Figure 5
The calculated fractional amount of mass lost as a function of impact parameter from several works. Our results are the black dashed-dotted lines. The acronyms FB05, R99, LRS93, BH87, and SS66 refer to Freitag and Benz [38], Rauch [33], Lai et al. [32], Benz and Hills [30], and Spitzer and Saslaw [40], respectively. The figures are adopted from Freitag and Benz [38].
