| Description | We present results of three-dimensional, hydrodynamic models of gaseous disks settling in a nonspherical potential. As the gas settles, differential precession creates a warped disk similar to the warps seen in spiral galaxies. A logarithmic potential, indicative of a massive halo, seems to induce warps more extreme than those produced by a l/r potential with a quadrupole distortion. |
