Caption: Figure 3.

Distributions of the Lorentz factor W for all cases considered (different columns) at time t = tmer. As in Figure 2, the distributions are rotated so that the stellar centers are on a y = 0 line. Dashed and solid lines correspond to the rest-mass density contours of 4 × 1014 and 6 × 1014 g cm−3, respectively.
