Are ring galaxies the ancestors of giant low surface brightness galaxies?
M. Mapelli, B. Moore, E. Ripamonti +4
Giant low surface brightness galaxies (GLSBs) have flat discs extending up to ~100 kpc. Their formation is a puzzle for cosmological simulations in the cold dark matter scenario. W…
The origin of lopsidedness in galaxies
M. Mapelli, B. Moore, J. Bland-Hawthorn
It has long been known that a large fraction of disc galaxies are lopsided. We simulate three different mechanisms that can induce lopsidedness: flyby interactions, gas accretion f…
Reply to Melott's Comment on ``Discreteness Effects in Lambda Cold Dark Matter Simulations: A Wavelet-Statistical View'' by Romeo et al
Alessandro B. Romeo, Oscar Agertz, Ben Moore +1
Melott has made pioneering studies of the effects of particle discreteness in N-body simulations, a fundamental point that needs careful thought and analysis since all such simulat…
