Generation of rotationally dominated galaxies by mergers of pressure-supported progenitors
P. Di Matteo, C. J. Jog, M. D. Lehnert +2
Through the analysis of a set of numerical simulations of major mergers between initially non-rotating, pressure supported progenitor galaxies with a range of central mass concentr…

On the survival of metallicity gradients to major dry-mergers
P. Di Matteo, A. Pipino, M. D. Lehnert +2
Using a large suite of galaxies with a variety of concentrations and metallicity gradients, we study the evolution of non-dissipative ("dry") equal mass mergers. Our purpose in gen…
