Synthetic X-ray and radio maps for two different models of Stephan's Quintet

Annette Geng, Alexander M. Beck, Klaus Dolag +4

We present simulations of the compact galaxy group Stephan's Quintet (SQ) including magnetic fields, performed with the N-body/smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) code \textsc{Ga…

Origin of strong magnetic fields in Milky-Way like galactic haloes

Alexander M. Beck, Harald Lesch, Klaus Dolag +3

An analytical model predicting the growth rates, the absolute growth times and the saturation values of the magnetic field strength within galactic haloes is presented. The analyti…

Magnetic field amplification and X-ray emission in galaxy minor mergers

Annette Geng, Hanna Kotarba, Florian Bürzle +4

We investigate the magnetic field evolution in a series of galaxy minor mergers using the N-body/smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) code \textsc{Gadget}. The simulations include…

Cosmic-ray driven dynamo in galaxies

Michał Hanasz, Dominik Wóltański, Kacper Kowalik +1

We present recent developments of global galactic-scale numerical models of the Cosmic Ray (CR) driven dynamo, which was originally proposed by Parker (1992). We conduct a series o…

Galactic ménage à trois: Simulating magnetic fields in colliding galaxies

H. Kotarba, H. Lesch, K. Dolag +4

We present high resolution simulations of a multiple merger of three disk galaxies including the evolution of magnetic fields performed with the N-body/SPH code Gadget. For the fir…

One moment in time - modeling star formation in the Antennae

Simon J. Karl, Thorsten Naab, Peter H. Johansson +4

We present a new high-resolution N-body/SPH simulation of an encounter of two gas-rich disk galaxies which closely matches the morphology and kinematics of the interacting Antennae…
