Self-interacting dark matter on small and large scales

open access: yesSciPost Physics Proceedings, 2023
In the self-interacting dark matter paradigm (hereafter SIDM), dark matter (DM) is assumed to have non-gravitational interactions with itself. SIDM has been constrained by observations of galaxy clusters. More recently, measurements of large DM densities

Characterization of Bars Induced by Interactions

open access: yesGalaxies, 2016
Whether the formation of bars is triggered by interactions or by internal processes has been discussed for many decades. In this work, we study differences between both mechanisms by means of numerical simulations.

Evolution of Galaxies Through Their Interactions [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1996
We investigated how the encounters between galaxies change their mass M and velocity dispersion σ. We carried out a series of direct N-body simulation of encounters of two spherical galaxies. In Figure 1, the relative change of energy ΔE/E are plotted against that of mass ΔM/M for various initial conditions.

Cosmic-Ray Propagation and Interactions in the Galaxy [PDF]

open access: yesAnnual Review of Nuclear and Particle Science, 2007
We survey the theory and experimental tests for the propagation of cosmic rays in the Galaxy up to energies of 1015eV. A guide to the previous reviews and essential literature is given, followed by an exposition of basic principles. The basic ideas of cosmic-ray propagation are described, and the physical origin of its processes is explained.

Bar-spheroid interaction in galaxies

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1992
The secular evolution of barred galaxies is explored using N-body simulation and linear analysis. In particular, we examine the interaction between bars and spheroidal components of galaxies. According to our calculations, this interaction drives secular transfer of angular momentum from bars to spheroids, primarily through resonant coupling.

DDO68 C: The Actual Appearance of a Ghost Satellite Dwarf through Adaptive Optics at the Large Binocular Telescope

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Through adaptive optics (AO) imaging with the SOUL+LUCI instrument at the Large Binocular Telescope we were able to resolve, for the first time, individual stars in the gas-rich galaxy DDO68 C. This system was already suggested to be interacting with the

Tidal Disruption of Milky Way Satellites with Shallow Dark Matter Density Profiles

open access: yesGalaxies, 2016
Dwarf galaxies of the Local Group provide unique possibilities to test current theories of structure formation. Their number and properties have put the broadly accepted cold dark matter model into question, posing a few problems. These problems now seem

Scale Interactions and Galaxy Evolution [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysics and Space Science, 2003
To understand galaxies and their evolution, it is necessary to describe how the different scales interact: how the microscopic physics, such as star formation, or the large scale physics, such as galaxy interactions may modify the galaxy global shapes.

MOSEL Survey: JWST Reveals Major Mergers/strong Interactions Drive the Extreme Emission Lines in the Early Universe

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Extreme emission line galaxies (EELGs), where nebular emissions contribute 30%–40% of the flux in certain photometric bands, are ubiquitous in the early Universe ( z > 6).
