High resolution SPH simulations of disk formation in CDM halos; resolution tests
Tobias Kaufmann, Lucio Mayer, Ben Moore +2
We perform N-Body/SPH simulations of disk galaxy formation inside equilibrium spherical and triaxial cuspy dark matter halos. We systematically study the disk properties and morpho…
Cosmological particle-based simulations of galaxy formation; numerical loss of angular momentum and disk heating
Lucio Mayer
We discuss the role that numerical effects have in cosmological N-Body/SPH simulations of disk galaxy formation. We show that the resolution of current state-of-the-art calculation…
On the formation of the Magellanic Stream
C. Mastropietro, B. Moore, L. Mayer +2
We use high resolution N-Body/SPH simulations to study the hydro-dynamical and gravitational interaction between the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Milky Way. We model the dark and…
Sweeping and shaking dwarf satellites
Lucio Mayer, James Wadsley
We present the first high-resolution N-Body/SPH simulations that follow the evolution of low surface brightness disk satellites in a primary halo containing both dark matter and a…
Galaxies and Overmerging: What Does it Take to Destroy a Satellite Galaxy?
Stelios Kazantzidis, Ben Moore, Lucio Mayer
The Ultra Compact Dwarf (UCD) galaxies recently discovered in the Fornax and Virgo clusters exhibit structural similarity to the dense nuclei of nucleated dEs indicating that the p…
Simulations of unstable gaseous disks and the origin of giant planets
Lucio Mayer, Thomas Quinn, James Wadsley +1
We study the evolution of cold, gravitationally unstable protoplanetary gaseous disks performing 3D SPH simulations with up to a million particles on large parallel machines. We sh…
