The NGC 4013 tale: a pseudo-bulged, late-type spiral shaped by a major merger
, 2015 Many spiral galaxy haloes show stellar streams with various morphologies when observed with deep images. The origin of these tidal features is discussed, either coming from a satellite infall or caused by residuals of an ancient, gas-rich major merger ...

Sersic properties of disc galaxy mergers [PDF]
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2006 Sersic parameters characterising the density profiles of remnants formed in collision-less disc galaxy mergers are obtained; no bulge is included in our simulations. For the luminous component we find that the Sersic index is n ~ (1.5,5.3) with ~ 3 +/- 1 and an effective radius of R_e ~ (1.6,12.9) kpc with ~ 5 +/- 3 kpc.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.A microneedle spoilage sensor for packaged food products is presented. The sensor is composed entirely of food‐derived agents, integrated together using a novel material processing approach. This resultant platform nondestructively reports spoilage state in real‐time through a colorimetric output.

Could M31 be the result of a major merger?
EPJ Web of Conferences, 2012 We investigated a scenario in which M31 could be the remnant of a gas-rich major merger. Galaxy merger simulations, highly constrained by observations, were run using GADGET 2 in order to reproduce M31. We succeeded in reproducing the global shape of M31,

Event Rate of Fast Radio Bursts from Binary Neutron Star Mergers
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 It is proposed that a one-off fast radio burst (FRB) with periodic structure may be produced during the inspiral phase of a binary neutron star (BNS) merger. In this paper, we study the event rate of such kind of FRB.

FULLY COMPRESSIVE TIDES IN GALAXY MERGERS [PDF]
The Astrophysical Journal, 2009 The disruptive effect of galactic tides is a textbook example of gravitational dynamics. However, depending on the shape of the potential, tides can also become fully compressive. When that is the case, they might trigger or strengthen the formation of galactic substructures (star clusters, tidal dwarf galaxies), instead of destroying them.

Growing the first galaxies’ merger trees
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023 ABSTRACT Modelling the growth histories of specific galaxies often involves generating the entire population of objects that arise in a given cosmology and selecting systems with appropriate properties. This approach is highly inefficient when targeting rare systems such as the extremely luminous high-redshift galaxy candidates detected ...

Gas-Rich Companions of Isolated Galaxies [PDF]
, 1999 We have used the VLA to search for gaseous remnants of the galaxy formation process around six extremely isolated galaxies. We found two distinct HI clouds around each of two galaxies in our sample (UGC 9762 & UGC 11124).

Mergers and galaxy evolution [PDF]
, 2007 Galaxy merging is the late time manifestation of the galaxy formation process and likely significantly effects z < 1 galaxies. A "maximum reasonable rate" model for merging finds a ,~ 2 mag K band increase in the luminosities of dwarf galaxies so that they contribute significantly to the faint counts, with spirals and ellipticals being far less ...
