J. W. Woodward, J. E. Tohline, & I. Hachisu (1994; hereafter WTH94) used nonlinear numerical hydrodynamic techniques to examine the relative stability of self-gravitating, polytropic tori toward the development of nonaxisymmetric structure. The following pair of tables list key properties of the set of model tori that were examined: Table 5 gives characteristics of the initial models and Table 6 presents results ascertained from the numerical stability analyses.
