Paraan}, title = {Evaporation and compaction of colliding dust clusters at different impact parameters}, abstract = {The dynamics of colliding dust clusters is important in the study of dust cloud evolution. In this work, a molecular dynamics simulation of the collision of two spherical clusters of SiO$_{2}$ particles was done to find out how the evaporation fraction depends on impact parameter. By measuring the average number of neighbors each unevaporated grain has, we found a critical impact parameter that results in maximum cluster compaction.}, year = {2019}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 37th Samahang Pisika ng Pilipinas Physics Conference}, pages = {SPP-2019-PB-21}, month = {29 May 2019}, address = {Tagbilaran City, Philippines}, url = {https://paperview.spp-online.org/proceedings/article/view/SPP-2019-PB-21}, }
