Counterrotating Stars in Simulated Galaxy Disks
David G. Algorry, Julio F. Navarro, Mario G. Abadi +3
Counterrotating stars in disk galaxies are a puzzling dynamical feature whose origin has been ascribed to either satellite accretion events or to disk instabilities triggered by de…
The Modelling of Feedback Processes in Cosmological Simulations of Disk Galaxy Formation
Franziska Piontek, Matthias Steinmetz
We present a systematic study of stellar feedback processes in simulations of disk galaxy formation. Using a dark matter halo with properties similar to the ones for the Milky Way'…
The Angular Momentum Problem in Cosmological Simulations of Disk Galaxy Formation
Franziska Piontek, Matthias Steinmetz
We conduct a systematic study of the angular momentum problem in numerical simulations of disk galaxy formation. We investigate the role of numerical resolution using a semi-cosmol…
