N-body simulations of warped galaxies

arXiv:astro-ph/0009053

Abstract

Two methods generating warped galaxies with N-body simulations are presented. One uses an external potential as a disturber while the other is based on material accretion. The results of both methods are compared. A particular attention is given on the shape of the line of node (LON).
