Gravitational waves and stalled satellites from massive galaxy mergers at z <= 1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We present a model for merger-driven evolution of the mass function for massive galaxies and their central supermassive black holes at late times. We discuss the current observational evidence in favor of merger-driven massive galaxy evolution during ...

Formation of Globular Clusters in Galaxy Mergers [PDF]

open access: yesHighlights of Astronomy, 2005
AbstractOur numerical simulations first demonstrate that the pressure of ISM in a major merger becomes so high (> 105 kB K cm-3) that GMCs in the merger can collapse to form globular clusters (GCs) within a few Myr. The star formation efficiency within a GMC in galaxy mergers can rise up from a few percent to ~ 80 percent, depending on the shapes ...

A Degradable Bioinspired Flier with Aerogel‐Based Colorimetric Sensors for Environmental Monitoring

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Biodegradable fliers are developed inspired by Tipuana tipu samaras, integrating cellulose nanocrystal aerogel (CNCa) sensors loaded with natural dyes for pH and ammonia detection. The lightweight, degradable fliers mimic natural morphology and aerodynamics, offering an eco‐friendly, scalable solution for in situ environmental monitoring after passive ...

Describing the Nonuniversal Galaxy Merger Timescales in IllustrisTNG: Effects of Host Halo Mass, Baryons, and Sample Selection

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Galaxy merger timescales are crucial for understanding and modeling galaxy formation in our hierarchically structured Universe. However, previous studies have reported widely varying dependencies of merger timescales on initial orbital parameters and ...

Spectral Index of the Filaments in the Abell 523 Radio Halo

open access: yesGalaxies, 2021
The galaxy cluster Abell 523 hosts a radio halo characterized by the presence of two filaments transversely located with respect to the cluster merger axis.

Simulations of Galaxy Mergers [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1983
The last few years have seen a considerable amount of effort devoted to the problem of simulating the coalescence of galaxies. After a discussion of the merits and limitations of the N-body techniques that have been used, I summarise the insight this research gives into the mechanisms driving strong interactions in galaxy collisions and into the ...

Subcluster mergers and galaxy infall in A2151 [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 1995
We have obtained a 12.5 ksec image of the Hercules Cluster, A2151, with the {\it ROSAT} PSPC. Comparison of the optical and X-ray data suggest the presence of at least three distinct subclusters in A2151. The brightest X-ray emission coincides with the highest-density peak in the galaxy distribution, and is bimodal.

Radialization of Satellite Orbits in Galaxy Mergers

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2022
Abstract We consider the orbital evolution of satellites in galaxy mergers, focusing on the evolution of eccentricity. Using a large suite of N-body simulations, we study the phenomenon of satellite orbital radialization—a profound increase in the eccentricity of its orbit as it decays under dynamical friction.

Edible Pneumatic Battery for Sustained and Repeated Robot Actuation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work presents an edible energy source and valve system to power soft, pneumatically driven edible robots. A chemical reaction between sodium bicarbonate and citric acid generates carbon dioxide gas, and a pressure‐triggered edible valve enables self‐repetitive motion of the edible actuator.

Handy Relation between Binary Black Hole Merger Times and Host Galaxy Properties

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
Over the past 15 yr, the evidence has clearly demonstrated that massive black hole (MBH) binary merger timescales depend strongly on the structural and kinematic properties of their host galaxy.
