Forming disc galaxies in major mergers: III. The effect of angular momentum on the radial density profiles of disc galaxies
N. Peschken, E. Athanassoula, S. A. Rodionov
We study the effect of angular momentum on the surface density profiles of disc galaxies, using high resolution simulations of major mergers whose remnants have downbending radial…

Forming disc galaxies in major mergers II. The central mass concentration problem and a comparison of GADGET3 with GIZMO
S. A. Rodionov, E. Athanassoula, N. Peschken
Context: In a series of papers, we study the major merger of two disk galaxies in order to establish whether or not such a merger can produce a disc galaxy. Aims: Our aim here is t…
