Superbubbles as the source of dynamical friction: gas migration, stellar and dark matter contributions
Rain Kipper, Indrek Vurm, Aikaterini Niovi Triantafyllaki +2
[Abridged] The gas distribution in galaxies is smooth on large scales, but is usually time-dependent and inhomogeneous on smaller scales. The time-dependence originates from proces…

Back to the present: A general treatment for the tidal field from the wake of dynamical friction
Rain Kipper, Peeter Tenjes, María Benito +6
Dynamical friction can be a valuable tool for inferring dark matter properties that are difficult to constrain by other methods. Most applications of dynamical friction calculation…
