Projected density plot for three simulations in Table 1, which involve stellar or black hole impacts on the disk at inclinations of π/10 and π/2. In the first column, arrows mark the directions of motion of both the disk gas and the impactor. For each simulation, the snapshots are shown at 0.25, 0.5, and 1.0 hr after the initial contact.
