Dark matter mass loss in galaxy flybys: dependence on impact parameter [PDF]
Galaxy flybys, interactions where two independent halos inter-penetrate but detach at a later time and do not merge, occur frequently at lower redshifts.

Formation of Transitional cE/UCD Galaxies through Massive/Dwarf Disc Galaxy Mergers
The dynamics of the merger of a dwarf disc galaxy with a massive spiral galaxy of the Milky Way type were studied in detail. The remnant of such interaction after numerous crossings of the satellite through the disc of the main galaxy was a compact ...

Formation of Major Types of Galaxies Based on the Energy Circulation Theory
The standard cosmology can answer almost nothing about how the structure of a galaxy is formed. It expects a supermassive black hole at the center and dark matter in the halo to explain the circulation of stars and its velocity.

Osaka feedback model: isolated disc galaxy simulations [PDF]
We study various implementations of supernova feedback model and present the results of our `Osaka feedback model' using isolated galaxy simulations performed by the smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) code {\small GADGET-3}.

A prediction on the age of thick discs as a function of the stellar mass of the host galaxy [PDF]
One of the suggested thick disc formation mechanisms is that they were born quickly and in situ from a turbulent clumpy disc. Subsequently, thin discs formed slowly within them from leftovers of the turbulent phase and from material accreted through cold flows and minor mergers. In this letter, I propose an observational test to verify this hypothesis.

The Diversity of Assembly Histories Leading to Disc Galaxy Formation in a ΛCDM Model [PDF]
Disc galaxies forming in a LambdaCDM cosmology often experience violent mergers. The fact that disc galaxies are ubiquitous suggests that quiescent histories are not necessary.

The gravitational microlens influence on X-ray spectral line generated by an AGN accretion disc [PDF]
The influence of gravitational microlensing on the X-ray spectral line profiles originated from a relativistic accretion disc has been studied. Using a disc model, we show that microlensing can induce noticeable changes in the line shapes when the ...

Formation and settling of a disc galaxy during the last 8 billion years in a cosmological simulation [PDF]
We present results of a high-resolution zoom cosmological simulation of the evolution of a low-mass galaxy with a maximum velocity of V=100 km/s at z=0, using the initial conditions from the AGORA project (Kim et al 2014). The final disc-dominated galaxy
