Gas flows in galaxy mergers

open access: yes, 2021
In major galaxy mergers, the orbits of stars are violently perturbed, and gas is torqued to the centre, diluting the gas metallicity and igniting a starburst. In this paper, we study the gas dynamics in and around merging galaxies using a series of cosmological magnetohydrodynamical zoom-in simulations.

A Low-mass Model of the Milky Way: The Disk Warp Resulting from a Galaxy Merger

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Previous studies have shown that disk warps can result from galaxy mergers. Recent research indicates a noticeable decline in the rotation curve (RC) of the Milky Way, suggesting the need for a new low-mass model to describe its dynamical features.

Old stellar counter-rotating components in early-type galaxies from elliptical-spiral mergers

open access: yes, 2007
We investigate, by means of numerical simulations, the possibility of forming counter-rotating old stellar components by major mergers between an elliptical and a spiral galaxy.

Galaxy Mergers Moulding The Cgm

open access: yes, 2017
Galaxies are surrounded by sizeable gas reservoirs which host a significant amount of metals: the circum-galactic medium (CGM). The CGM acts as a mediator between the galaxy and the extra-galactic medium. However, our understanding of how galaxy mergers, a major evolutionary transformation, impact the CGM remains deficient.

JWST Unveils the Bimodal Nature of Lyα Emitters at 3 < z < 7: Pristine versus Merger-driven Populations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a systematic study of merging galaxies among Lyα emitters (LAEs) using James Webb Space Telescope/NIRCam high-resolution imaging data. From a large sample of 817 spectroscopically confirmed LAEs at 3  6 to 70% at z

Gamma ray emission and stochastic particle acceleration in galaxy clusters

open access: yes, 2008
FERMI (formely GLAST) will shortly provide crucial information on relativistic particles in galaxy clusters. We discuss non-thermal emission in the context of general calculations in which relativistic particles (protons and secondary electrons due to ...

Mind and Cosmos as Throughput Systems: A Convergence Through the Throughput Model

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper advances a conceptual and mathematical foundations approach by applying the throughput model (TPM) to cosmic phenomena, reframing the universe as an extended information processing system. TPM's four stages, Perception, Information, Judgement and Decision Choice, are reformulated in explicit information‐theoretic and dynamical ...

Reduction of the Bar Fraction in Paired Galaxies in the SDSS

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We investigate the bar fraction in galaxy pairs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey to assess how galaxy interactions affect bar structures. Compared to isolated galaxies, close pairs exhibit a significantly reduced bar fraction at projected separations ...

Cosmological interpretation of the color-magnitude diagrams of galaxy clusters

open access: yes, 2018
We investigate the color-magnitude diagram (CMD) of cluster galaxies in the hierarchical $\Lambda$-CDM cosmological scenario using both single stellar populations and simple galaxy models.
