Predicting the Properties of the Remnants of Dissipative Galaxy Mergers
M. Covington, A. Dekel, T. J. Cox +2
We construct a physically motivated model for predicting the properties of the remnants of gaseous galaxy mergers, given the properties of the progenitors and the orbit. The model…
The effect of galaxy mass ratio on merger--driven starbursts
T. J. Cox, Patrik Jonsson, Rachel S. Somerville +2
We employ numerical simulations of galaxy mergers to explore the effect of galaxy mass ratio on merger--driven starbursts. Our numerical simulations include radiative cooling of ga…
Dust Attenuation in Hydrodynamic Simulations of Spiral Galaxies
Miguel Rocha, Patrik Jonsson, Joel R. Primack +1
We study the effects of dust in hydrodynamic simulations of spiral galaxies when different radial metallicity gradients are assumed. SUNRISE, a Monte-Carlo radiative-transfer code,…
