Gas Dynamics and Inflow in gas-rich Galaxy Mergers
Thorsten Naab, Andreas Burkert
We performed N-body/SPH simulations of merging gas-rich disk galaxies with mass ratios of 1:1 and 3:1. A stellar disk and bulge component and a dark halo was realized with collisio…

Gas dynamics and disk formation in 3:1 mergers
Thorsten Naab, Andreas Burkert
We performed N-body/SPH simulations of merging gas rich disk-galaxies with a mass ratio of 3:1. A stellar disk and bulge component and a dark halo is realized with collisionless pa…

Evidence for Large Stellar Disks in Elliptical Galaxies
Andreas Burkert, Thorsten Naab
High-resolution numerical simulations of galaxy mergers are analysed. The global structure and isophotal shapes of the merger remnants are in good agreement with the observations.…
