Satellite survival in cold dark matter cosmology
C. M. Boily, N. Nakastao, R. Spurzem +1
We study the survival of substructures (clumps) within larger self-gravitating dark matter halos. Building on scaling relations obtained from N-body calculations of violent relaxat…
On the equilibrium morphology of systems drawn from spherical collapse experiments
C. M. Boily, E. Athanassoula
We present a purely theoretical study of the morphological evolution of self-gravitating systems formed through the dissipationless collapse of N-point sources. We explore the effe…
Scaling up Tides in Numerical Models of Galaxy- and Halo-Formation
C. M. Boily, E. Athanassoula, P. Kroupa
The purpose of this article is to show that when dynamically cold, dissipationless self-gravitating systems collapse, their evolution is a strong function of the symmetry in the in…
Efficient N-body Realisations of axisymmetric Galaxies and Haloes
C. M. Boily, P. Kroupa, J. Penarrubia-Garrido
We present an efficient method for building equilibrium multi-component galaxies with non-spherical haloes and bulges. The gist of our approach is to tailor the velocity ellipsoid…
