Enhanced Star Formation and Black Hole Accretion Rates in Galaxy Mergers in IllustrisTNG50
The Astrophysical JournalMany theoretical and observational studies have suggested that galaxy mergers may trigger enhanced star formation or active galactic nucleus activity.

Massive close pairs measure rapid galaxy assembly in mergers at high redshift [PDF]
, 2016 We compare mass-selected close pairs at z > 1 with the intrinsic galaxy merger rate in the Illustris Simulations. To do so, we construct three 140 arcmin^2 lightcone catalogs and measure pair fractions, finding that they change little or decrease with ...

Galaxy Mergers Moulding The Cgm
, 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.

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.

European Journal of Heart Failure, EarlyView.Heart failure (HF) and atrial fibrillation (AF) are major global health challenges with rising prevalence and significant morbidity, mortality, and healthcare burden. Despite advances in HF management, AF remains a critical comorbidity that worsens outcomes and requires ad hoc treatment strategies, increasing the risk of non‐adherence and side effects.

Intermediate Mass Ratio Inspirals in Milky Way Galaxies
The Astrophysical JournalA consequence of a nonzero occupation fraction of massive black holes (MBHs) in dwarf galaxies is that these MBHs can become residents of larger galaxy halos via hierarchical merging and tidal stripping.

Close Pairs as Proxies for Galaxy Cluster Mergers
, 2008 Galaxy cluster merger statistics are an important component in understanding the formation of large-scale structure. Unfortunately, it is difficult to study merger properties and evolution directly because the identification of cluster mergers in ...

Adverse Outcome Pathways Applied to Space Radiation Research
Environmental and Molecular Mutagenesis, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Long‐duration spaceflight exposes astronauts to various stressors that can alter human physiology, potentially causing immediate and long‐term health effects. These stressors can damage biomolecules, cells, tissues, and organs, leading to adverse outcomes.

Origins of the Evil Eye: M64's Stellar Halo Reveals the Recent Accretion of an SMC-mass Satellite
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 M64, often called the “Evil Eye” galaxy, is unique among local galaxies. Beyond its dramatic, dusty nucleus, it also hosts an outer gas disk that counter-rotates relative to its stars.
