Formation of gas discs in merging galaxies

JE Barnes - Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2002 - academic.oup.com
Observations indicate that much of the interstellar gas in merging galaxies may settle into
extended gaseous discs. Here, I present simulations of disc formation in mergers of gas-rich …

On the formation and dynamics of shells around elliptical galaxies

Centaurus a–ngc 5128

FP Israel - The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 1998 - Springer
At a distance of 3.4 Mpc, NGC 5128 (Centaurus A) is by far the nearest active radio galaxy. It
is often considered to be the prototype Fanaroff-Riley Class I 'low-luminosity'radio galaxy …

Discovery of neutral hydrogen associated with the diffuse shells of NGC 5128 (Centaurus A)

In this Letter, we present for the first time images and kinematics of neutral hydrogen, which
is unambiguously associated with the optical shells of an E/S0 galaxy, NGC 5128. Using the …

The detailed star formation history in the spheroid, outer disk, and tidal stream of the Andromeda galaxy

TM Brown, E Smith, HC Ferguson… - The Astrophysical …, 2006 - iopscience.iop.org
Using HST ACS, we have obtained deep optical images reaching stars well below the oldest
main-sequence turnoff in the spheroid, tidal stream, and outer disk of Andromeda. We have …
