Momentum transfer across shear flows in Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamic simulations of galaxy formation
T. Okamoto, A. Jenkins, V. R. Eke +2
We investigate the evolution of angular momentum in SPH simulations of galaxy formation, paying particular attention to artificial numerical effects. We find that a cold gas disc f…
On the nature of the ring-like structure in the outer Galactic disk
Amina Helmi, Julio F. Navarro, Andres Meza +2
We examine the tidal disruption of satellite galaxies in a cosmological simulation of the formation of a disk galaxy in the CDM scenario. We find that the disruption of satellit…
Simulations of Galaxy Formation in a Lambda CDM Universe III: The Dissipative Formation of an Elliptical Galaxy
Andres Meza, Julio F. Navarro, Matthias Steinmetz +1
We examine in detail the dynamical structure of an elliptical galaxy simulated in the Lambda CDM scenario. The morphology of the galaxy evolves dramatically over time in response t…
