Radiation protection issues after 20 years of LHC operation

D. Forkel-Wirth, M. Magistris, S. Roesler +4

Since November 2009, the LHC commissioning progresses very well, both with proton and lead beams. It will continue in 2011 and nominal LHC operation is expected to be attained in 2…

Rotation of the Milky Way and the formation of the Magellanic Stream

Adam Ruzicka, Christian Theis, Jan Palous

We studied the impact of the revisited values for the LSR circular velocity of the Milky Way (Reid et al. 2004) on the formation of the Magellanic Stream. The LSR circular velocity…

One moment in time - modeling star formation in the Antennae

Simon J. Karl, Thorsten Naab, Peter H. Johansson +4

We present a new high-resolution N-body/SPH simulation of an encounter of two gas-rich disk galaxies which closely matches the morphology and kinematics of the interacting Antennae…

Measuring dark matter by modeling interacting galaxies

H. P. Petsch, A. Ruzicka, Ch Theis

The dark matter content of galaxies is usually determined from galaxies in dynamical equilibrium, mainly from rotationally supported galactic components. Such determinations restri…

Fully compressive tides in galaxy mergers

Florent Renaud, Christian Boily, Thorsten Naab +1

The disruptive effect of galactic tides is a textbook example of gravitational dynamics. However, depending on the shape of the potential, tides can also become fully compressive.…
